To accomplish the aim of the study, 32 in-depth interviews were conducted with accountants, environmental managers and municipals managers on 10 municipalities in South Africa. Thematic analysis’s was used to analyse the data and unearthed that environmental management system, waste management system, environmental reporting, environmental training and research and development are currently used as EMA practices to boost municipal solid waste management.
