Zero Waste Europe Joan Marc Simon GAIA Coordinator in Europe

Why Zero Waste in Europe now? 1- Climate change - emissions 2- Resource scarcity – higher prices 3- Economic crisis – unemployment 4- Urban ecological security 5- Sustainability 6- From combustion to digestion 7- Change of paradigm – do more with less 8- Communication – new goals for new century

Changing the paradigm in Europe : From Recycling to Zero Waste

If we look at recycling rates (2007)

But if we bring in waste generation(2007) (pounds/cap/year)

As important as building a circular economy is to reduce the materials use

Resource use in Europe has grown 34% between 2000 and 2007

Work on all levels of waste hierarchy Reduce disposal + increase collection and recycling + stabilise waste generation... Flanders, Belgium

Creation of Zero Waste network in Europe 13 countries represented Brussels 14, March

Does Zero Waste actually mean ZERO? What matters is the vision – never giving up the idea to further reduce residuals and minimise the use of hardly or non-recyclable materials Add «minimise residuals» to «separate collection» Cold pretreatment (MBT with recovery of materials) to keep the system flexible It can mean «less than 22 pounds of MSW residual»

Eurostat – 63% of europeans declares being active in the fight against climate change For 75% of them the first action they do against climate change is separating waste and recycling. For Europeans separating waste and recycling are the preferred way to fight Climate Change
