Economics circular: waste that becomes a resource 

Each citizen generates almost average ton of waste per year, the vast majority of which is collected as mixed waste, which prevents its proper subsequent use as reusable or recyclable resource . The objectives of reuse and recycling established by the ambitious rules and regulations of waste to which the local public entities are obliged require the protagonism and the necessary partnership and citizen participation through selective collection. Only in this way will it be possible to achieve the circular Economics consisting of turning waste into resources.

Why and how the measures necessary to achieve these objectives are carried out and their environmental, economic and social benefits are discussed in this session.
