CEDEF and PKS Round Table

LANDFILLS IN SERBIA – THE CAUSE AND SOLUTION TO THE PROBLEM

Due to the great interest in the six Public debates on MANAGEMENT OF MUNICIPAL AND INDUSTRIAL WASTE IN SERBIA, CEDEF, organized a Round Table discussion on LANDFILLS IN SERBIA - the cause and solution to the problem. The Round Table was organized in cooperation with the Serbian Chamber of Commerce, under the institutional auspices of the Ministry of Mining and Energy, the Secretariat for Environmental Protection of the City of Belgrade and the Agency for Environmental Protection of the Republic of Serbia. One of the biggest environmental problems in Serbia is landfills. According to the European Union, the situation in the field of environmental protection in Serbia is not commendable. Environmental protection is one of the key areas of European integration and the most challenging in the process, because one third of all EU legislation is related to that area. Problems of illegal landfills occur in almost every municipality in Serbia, mainly in parks and by the watershed. The reasons for their appearance is the lack of an efficient waste management system, insufficient sanitary landfills, avoiding unscrupulous companies and citizens to address their waste, construction materials, waste disposed in regular landfills in order to avoid payment of fees, as well as the lack of awareness about the significance of environmental protection.
