EPR Discussed At BIR Recycling Convention

摘要

There is a limited role for extended producer responsibility (EPR) schemes where markets are not yet established. However, "sunset" provisions should be agreed to ensure these initiatives are ended as markets approach maturity, it was argued at the Bureau of International Recycling's (BIR) International Environment Council (IEC) meeting in Rome by Robin Wiener, President of the U.S. Institute of Scrap Recycling Industries (ISRI).
