WASTE MANAGEMENT VERSUS SUSTAINABLE LOCAL DEVELOPMENT

Journal Title: Roczniki Naukowe Stowarzyszenia Ekonomistów Rolnictwa i Agrobiznesu - Year 2018, Vol 0, Issue 3

Abstract

The aim of the paper was to present the ways for activities that municipalities could take to improve their waste management systems. The issue of waste management and shaping social attitudes in terms of their disposal is the domain of local governments. It closely fits the essence of sustainable local development. It is important for every community not only in the context of environmental protection, but also for socio-economic reasons. There is a wide variety of solutions for the disposal of waste. According to the authors, sustainable development of this sphere of human life and activity can be more effectively implemented when the attitudes and opinions of residents are known. It can then be done by searching for and implementing patterns adapted to local conditions. On the example of the Biecz commune located in the Małopolskie province, the functioning of the local waste management system was presented in the light of the existing secondary data and the results of own surveys. Real problems were discussed and ways to overcome them were proposed.<br/><br/>
