Abstract

The lack of waste management remains as harmful to the environment as civil aviation or merchant shipping. Financing these sectors, particularly in developing countries, remains complex: waste recovery is not profitable. How can these difficulties be overcome? What are the long-term benefits, locally and for the planet? This post explores some avenues including alcohol and tobacco taxes as a source of transitional funding. L’absence de gestion des déchets demeure néfaste pour l’environnement, autant que l’aviation civile ou la marine marchande. Financer ces filières notamment dans les pays en développement reste compliqué : la valorisation des déchets ne permettant pas d’être rentable. Comment surmonter ces difficultés ? Quels bénéfices à long-terme, localement et pour la planète ? Ce billet explore quelques pistes notamment les taxes sur l’alcool et le tabac comme source de financement transitoire.
