How can Brussels be a zero-waste
European capital?
GOVERNARE GREEN – Roma 23 october 2016Arnaud Pinxteren – Brussels MP
Let's dream together
1979-2010 : Let's burn!
The reign of incineration leads to perverse effects :
- fixed costs of an overloaded capacity incineration plant
- quest for cost-effectivement => Necessity to fill the incinerator => no proactivity in ultime waste prevention
and reduction, even import of waste !
An obsession with consequences
Mixed results in spite of a progressive obligation of waste-sorting for paper, plastic/metal and glass

2012 : a paradigm shift...(obj 50 % valorisé for 2020)
« From waste to ressource »

Yes we can! with a
« 3 points » strategy

Tax on incineration
Incentive and progressive pricing of waste collect - Pay as you throw
2. Reduce and Reuse : to urban metabolism
Production
… by circular economy
