The European Parliament approved the new Waste Framework Directive.
As a new Directive requires all member countries in conducting prevention programs within their respective planning on waste, introducing a hierarchy proceedings to consider the landfill as a last resort (this is not entirely new).
these prevention programs must include quantified objectives and indicators for control marking style management systems and environmental quality.
In 2014 prevention targets will be set at European level mandatory in 2020.
In 2020 you will need to reuse and recycle 50% of municipal waste and 70% of construction waste and demolition.
biodegradable waste will be collected separately and composted.
Energy recovery of municipal waste shall compliance with minimum levels of efficiency.
waste producers start to have more responsibility with the new directive. May be considered as waste producers, according to each Member State, a ny person or entity that develops, manufactures, processes, treats, sells or imports products professionally. This new conception of the figure of the waste producer would include the acceptance of returned products and waste generated at the end of the life of these products.
We will have to read it carefully.
