March 10, 2009
An international movement to improve product design by changing how recycling and waste disposal are financed is gaining momentum in North America. The movement, known as Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) or Product Stewardship, picked up speed as two states recently introduced �framework� EPR legislation and more states are expected to follow suit. Additionally, last week Canada announced steps towards a nationwide framework EPR policy. EPR policies internalize product lifecycle impacts into product prices to generate green jobs and unleash the creativity of businesses to design and provide �cradle to cradle� product management. The framework approach allows one law to establish EPR as policy and gives state government the authority to address multiple products over time. Several provinces in Canada, including British Columbia, already have Framework EPR regulations in place...EU municipal waste treatment data published
March 09, 2009
The generation and treatment of municipal waste "varies significantly" across different EU member states, according to new statistics for 2007 published by the European statistical office Eurostat on Monday. Generation of municipal waste that year ranged from 294 kilograms per person in the Czech Republic to 801kg in Denmark, Eurostat reported. Over 95 per cent of municipal waste was landfilled in Bulgaria, Romania and Lithuania. By contrast Germany, Belgium, Sweden and the Netherlands landfilled less than five per cent of their household and small business waste. Eurostat also reported data on recycling and composting, which reveal that Germany, Belgium, Austria and the Netherlands achieved the highest recycling rates at well over 50 per cent. Denmark, Sweden and Luxembourg each incinerated around half of their municipal waste in 2007. *Meanwhile, a report published by the European environment agency (EEA) last week revealed that the number of illegal waste shipments reported in the EU quadrupled between 1997 and 2005. But most disposal activities in Europe comply with EU legislation, the agency added.
