"Mr President, Mrs Jackson’s waste and Mr Blokland’s recycling reports are very important for us and for protecting the environment. Unfortunately, studies of waste from the re-use of biological effluent on non-industrial mountain areas have shown it to contain heavy metals. This disqualifies it from use as fertiliser and also indicates that the process of environmental contamination is ongoing. Particularly in Eastern Europe, there are sites where spent pesticides have been stored. This waste was left over from enterprises that have been put into liquidation, and the buildings and land that have been left behind are ruined. Properly organised recycling would go some way to solving many of these problems. Unfortunately, even the best regulations will not solve them all. The effectiveness of any action taken in this respect will be hampered by ignorance of knowledge about the danger of the waste and its re-use (schools and the media should be provided with ongoing information about this), by lack of funding for waste management, particularly in poor municipalities (such municipalities should qualify for national and EU funding) and insufficient exchange of best practice in the field."@en1
