The Action Plan will form an integral part of the new Waste Management Plan for the period 2023-2028.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; \">It was reported that Croatia produces around six million tonnes of waste annually, representing an average of approximately 1.5 tonnes per person annually, with the majority coming from the construction sector and households.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; \">The waste management system relies heavily on 80 active landfills, where 58 per cent of municipal waste was disposed of last year.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; \">The head of the World Bank&#8217;s office in Croatia, Jehan Arulpragasam, said that changing the way products are produced and consumed requires ambitious reforms.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; \">He is pleased that the Croatian government has recognised the importance of the circular transformation of the economy and supports its efforts to achieve EU targets related to exploiting and treating waste as a resource and limiting the use of landfills.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; \">The two-year engagement of the Ministry and the World Bank contributed to the development of measures and policies that encourage the reduction of consumption, the long-term use of products and materials and the extension of their useful life.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; \"><b>Source:<\/b> Glasistre and Global Factor<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Climate Change News<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":3501293,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"content-type":"","inline_featured_image":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[89,88],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-3501781","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-daily","category-news"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.2 -
