Waste and Environmental Policy
Routledge (Verlag)
978-0-415-45936-5 (ISBN)
The rich and various empirical evidence shows that a robust delinking between waste generation and economic growth is still not present, thus future policies should directly address the problem at the source by targeting waste generation in EU countries. Some structural factors like population density and urbanisation present themselves as relevant drivers of both waste management and landfill diversion. Nevertheless, economic and structural factors alone are not sufficient to improve waste performances. Though waste policies are to be redesigned by covering the entire area of waste management, some first signals of policy effectiveness are arising.
This work will be of most interest to those students of environmental economics and environmental sciences, as well as policy makers, waste utility managers and companies in the waste management sector.
Massimiliano Mazzanti is currently lecturer in Environmental Economics and Associate Professor at the University of Ferrara, Italy. Anna Montini is Assistant Professor in Economics and lecturer in Economics and Environmental Economics at the University of Bologna, Italy.
