The following issues were discussed:

  • What can Romania learn from the experience of the western states?
  • What is the optimal combination of incentives between the positive ones (eg vouchers) and the punitive ones (taxes on the collected waste)?
  • What role can tenant associations play in promoting collection and recycling (instead of common dumpsters, separate containers)?
  • What is the value of the recycling market and how can we encourage the green industry?
  • How do companies get involved in environmental protection? How can companies contribute to educating employees to comply with environmental standards and to have a cleaner country?
