Document Summary
what the private sector vs the environmentalist should do. we need to think of solid waste from the level of extraction to consumption. we have been less successful in the other two rs (reduce, reuse) we need to try and expand changes in the economy to be reusable. the real answer is reduction but now we are going into a radical change due to the accepted idea of consumption energy efficiency. we have not used the instrument that is more logical: to increase the cost of electricity. we have not put a price on carbon. we have not made progress on fuel switching from fossil fuel b/c we are not able to offer a cost incentive. there are beginnings here though which we can continue to further resource consumption. forestry is a global issue - countries are making efforts to fund www. notesolution. com.
