Positive Impact of Waste Management
• Between 2000 and 2008: the waste sector alone grew more than 20%. jobs in recycling grew by almost 80%.
• WRAP have published a study that estimates that full implementation of EU waste legislation would: save € 72 billion a year; increase the annual turnover of the EU waste
management and recycling sector by € 42 billion; and create over 400,000 jobs by 2020.
Resource Security
In the 20th Century, the WORLD experienced a:
• 4 fold increase in population (currently over 7 billion)
• 23 fold increase in economic output
• 12 fold increase in fossil fuel use
• 9 fold increase in water use
• 8 fold increase in the extraction of material resources
• 23 fold increase in the extraction of ores and minerals

EU27 Resource Use, Extraction and Import
Domestic Material Consumption● a measure of the total amount of materials directly used by an economy. ● increased by 7.9% between 2000 and 2007.● Of the 8.2 billion tonnes of materials consumed in 2007:
» minerals accounted for 52%; fossil fuels 24%; » biomass 21%; and metals 4%.
Domestic Extraction● the extraction of materials from within a country's territory.● increased by 4.9% between 2000 and 2007.
Physical Trade Balance● increased by 26.5% between 2000 and 2007.
Resources – the Future
• By 2050:world population will be 9.1 billion three times more material resources 70% more food, feed and fibre.
• In the next 20 years: we will need 40% more energy and water.
• Material costs in some advanced European economies already make up more than 40% of total costs in manufacturing industries (compared to less than 20% for labour costs).
Expect the Expected and Prepare for the Unexpected
Stronger promotion of what we’ve got:measures to promote ‘high quality recycling’ recognition of the link between EoW & Recycling separate collection: paper, metal, plastic and glass by 2015
(technically, environmentally and economically practicable);
the overall 50 percent by weight target for the preparing for re-use and the recycling of waste by 2020.
Additional: Expect new targets, new materials, exclusions and more
standards. Flexible, innovative, future thinking.
