Recent findings reveal that less than 40 million tonnes of municipal bio-waste are separately collected and processed into high-quality compost and digestate in Europe, accounting for only 17% of municipal solid waste being organically recycled through composting and anaerobic digestion. This indicates that a significant amount of bio-waste is still ending up in landfills or incinerators, representing a missed opportunity for resource recovery and environmental benefits.<\/p>\n<p>The LIFE BIOBEST consortium has been proactive in addressing these challenges by developing guidelines and analysing best practices across Europe. Their aim is to provide local authorities with the necessary tools and information to implement and enhance bio-waste management systems. The consortium urges municipalities, waste management companies, and policymakers to strengthen their waste management strategies.<\/p>\n<p>By adopting efficient bio-waste collection and treatment practices, Europe can move closer to achieving its recycling targets and fully harness the environmental and economic benefits of bio-waste. This includes improving the separate collection and biological management of bio-waste at the European level to increase the current recycling rate and reduce the amount of bio-waste ending up in landfills or incinerators.<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.packaging-gateway.com\/news\/bio-waste-management-faces-eu-challenges\/\">Packaging Gateway<\/a><\/p>\n<p><p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>The post <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\/environmental-news-en\/1-648\/\">Bio-waste management faces EU challenges<\/a> appeared first on <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\">Vastuullisuusuutiset.fi<\/a>.<\/p>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[22],"tags":[6383,575,274,6701],"class_list":["post-136389","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news","tag-biowaste","tag-environmental-news-en","tag-eu","tag-waste-management"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/136389","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=136389"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/136389\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=136389"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=136389"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=136389"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
