Abstract:
For years now, climate change has been recognized as one of the
major challenges of our society. Extreme weather situations and other
climate change related events have increased in their frequency and
severity affecting millions of people and causing enormous economic
costs. In this scenario, some sectors of the economy, including waste
management, play a key role to preserve the environment and, at the
same time, to contribute to a sustainable development. While these
changes are recognized as necessary, their implementations require
considerable amount of money. Government support and existing
specific tools (such as tax exemption, grants, and so on) are no longer
sufficient to tackle the emergency coming from the climate change.
Appropriate regulations and policy interventions have therefore
increased their pressure on the ecosystem to promote sustainable
investments and to redirect private sector financing towards projects
combining environmental, social and economic considerations. In this
chapter, we discuss barriers and enablers to the waste management
financing as long as the existing financial tools to support waste
management related initiative. A key role of the more recent policy
initiatives emerges which leads to a discussion of the future perspectives
of the waste management financing
