Why waste is a challenge for Bucharest
- There is a serious lack of an action-driven waste management system for individual consumers
- What do we do now with the used clothing items, paper, glass, the oil used in cooking, batteries, printers, used tires, plastic (bottles)?
- What could we do differently (better) for the environment?
- Too few companies are using circular economy in their business model
- How do we convince more companies to integrate circular economy principles of reduce, reuse, recycle?
- Serious lack of education for adults on waste management (at home, at work)
- How do we convince consumers to reduce, reuse, recycle various items?
