Organizational and economical mechanism of consumer packaging recycling

Abstract

Every month the nature of Ukraine accumulates around 5 million tons of wastes, the significant part of which is consumer packaging. Taking into consideration this fact, it should be said that the ecological situation of our country is disappointing. Moreover, the environment of Ukraine is at risk because of such factors as absence of complex approach to the system of collecting, sorting, recycling of packaging materials and overloading of the Ukrainian market with packed products and packaging resources from abroad. Additionally, our country produces competitive goods in the packaging, which is not worse than the foreign one that stimulates the rapid development of packaging sector of economy. As a consequence, it also has a great impact on the environmental situation of the country.
