🚮 Stricter Waste Incineration Standards: What Does It Mean for Councils? ♻️ The UK Government is introducing tougher regulations for new waste incinerators, prioritising efficiency, Net Zero goals, and the transition to a circular economy. With recycling rates stagnating and nearly half of all waste being incinerated, this marks a critical turning point for councils to lead the way in waste management reform. As Circular Economy Minister, at Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs, Mary Creagh CBE MP said: "New energy-from-waste plants must be efficient and support Net Zero and our economic growth mission before they can be built." Meanwhile, Charlotte Rule, Head of Climate and Energy Policy at the Environmental Services Association, emphasised: "Increasing recycling rates, developing carbon capture, and implementing district heat networks will support decarbonisation and contribute to the UK's Net Zero ambitions." Find out what councils need to do next to meet these standards and champion sustainable waste solutions in our latest article. 👉 Read more at Chamber UK: https://lnkd.in/ekG5_hf7 #NetZero #CircularEconomy #WasteManagement #Sustainability #LocalCouncils #policy #publicpolicy #climatechange #decarbonisation #environment
