11. Alternative Waste Management
Alternative waste management is a set of activities that include inter alia the collection
and transport, transfer, temporary storage, reuse, recycling and recovery of specific waste
streams, so that they are recovered and diverted from the waste stream that led to final
disposal sites. There are many kinds of materials which can be reused, recycled or
otherwise recovered rather than ending up in landfills. The benefits of recycling are
numerous, including not only the protection of the environment and the conservation of
natural resources but also the promotion of sustainable development and the creation of
new jobs.
