Sustainable development: public policies for solid waste in Brazil
Abstract
This paper aims at analyzing the importance of sustainable development since its origin during the first Conference of Human Environment, in 1972, in Stockholm, Sweden. Our research highlights the key role of the Our Future Common Report in establishing the pillars of sustainable development and its evolution until now. First, the paper sets out the three classic pillars of sustainable development and the paramount principles that support such pillars. In particular, our study presents the solid waste policy in Brazil, introduced by law no. 12.305/2010 in order to address a problem that particularly impacts the achievement of sustainable development targets. The solid waste is a major issue in cities all over the world and this is no different in Brazil. The 2010 law sets principles, objectives and the legal framework for sustainable development in accordance with the sustainable development pillars identified in this work. This legislation also addresses topics such as the solid waste policy, that needs to be implemented by the country, states and municipalities; the Reverse Logistics; the selective collection of waste; its reuse or recycling practices. The research methodology used in this article is exploratory and is based on the analysis of article references and bibliographic studies.
