It notes, however, that the public sector will not be able to cover these costs alone; it will be imperative that Indonesia takes action to attract private actors to invest in its waste management sector. For instance, Indonesia could build a market for recycled plastic through Extended Producer Responsibility fees. This system could help create rewards for companies who put easily recyclable and/or recycled packaging on the market. Fees would be lower as the proportion of recycled content increases, helping create competitiveness incentives. https://www.greeninvestmentgroup.com/assets/gig/what-we-do/climate-finance-advisory/Waste-in-Indonesia_A4.pdf Share Share on Facebook Share on Twitter LinkedIn Add this Repost 1 like 0 comments
