Conservative MEP wins support to scrap rising levels of waste

Conservative MEP wins support to scrap rising levels of waste

Posted, July 10, 2007 @ 09:00

The amount of rubbish we throw out could stabilise at next year's level, thanks to a proposal from Conservative rapporteur on the Waste Framework Directive Caroline Jackson MEP endorsed in Strasbourg today.

The Directive, which MEPs have adopted, could shape the next 50 years of EU policy on waste management.
