Duitsland: Gids voor consumenten over afval en de circulaire economie gepubliceerd

Germany's Federal Environment Agency (Umwelt Bundesamt or UBA) wants consumers to become better at reducing, separating and recycling household waste. Recently it published a consumer guide to help them do so.
Generally, the guide discusses the four highest levels of the five-level waste hierarchy. After a section discussing how a circular economy operates, the guide includes sections on separating and recycling biowaste, paper, glass, wood, textiles and household hazardous waste. The guide also discusses German product stewardship initiatives including schemes for packaging, EEE, batteries, end-of-life vehicles and waste oil (Recycling Laws International, 23 mei 2014).
