Waste

Waste thematic

Waste management problems, particularly plastic pollution (macro and micro), are more acute on islands because of their distance from the continent and geographical constraints, they lack adequate storage facilities, financial resources and treatment facilities whose critical profitability size (financial and technical) is often incompatible with the amount of waste generated. Poor waste management can lead to sanitation problems, to the degradation of soil, water, land and marine environments, as well as landscape quality, affecting the attractiveness of the site and life on the island. Waste accumulation can also be enhanced by tourist influx on the island and significant seasonal variations.
