| Summary: | The problem of waste collection and disposal is one of the oldest in the history of mankind. Currently, the main purpose of waste management consists in the prevention of the harmful effect on the human health and the environment.
The author discusses the current situation in the area of use and disposal of waste in Russia. The author proposes a new methodological approach to the calculation and introduction of waste disposal fees to consolidate the ecological and economic constituents of the problem. This approach requires modification of the local legislation and introduction of the local geo-ecological stress factor to take account of the environmental status of regions, as well as the social and economic situation of regions. The geo-ecological stress factor is based on the local terrain and the population figures. |
