Abstract

This paper traces changing attitudes and practices regarding municipal and industrial waste disposal from the middle of the 19th century to the present. It examines the interaction between various theories of health and waste disposal in water and on land. The concluding section explores the increasing use of industrial and sanitary landfills since World War II and the development of legislation to deal with negative effects.
