Commission urges more effort on metal recycling

摘要

Member states have the capability to do better on metals recycling, Diana Oancea, responsible for packaging at the European Commission's DG Environment, told a recent seminar in Brussels."We set a target for metal recycling under the packaging and packaging waste directive of 50 per cent, but the performance in 2009 was 69 per cent. There is possibility for improvement so we need to encourage member states to go further."
