"This report deserves wholehearted support, as it continues to push towards a sustainable, efficient waste management strategy. There has been a large number of petitions relating to waste management facilities. It therefore makes sense to summarise the main problems in a report in order then to be able to tackle them in a practical way. These main problems include a lack of environmental impact assessments and existing shortcomings in the waste management systems. I welcome the fact that the Member States are expressly called on to speed up their implementation of Directive 2008/98/EC on waste. The Waste Framework Directive contains important regulations which provide for the protection of the environment as well as human health. Shortcomings in the waste management systems cause environmental damage, such as the pollution of groundwater. This pollution does not stop at borders, but has a cross-border effect. For this reason, the Member States must do everything they can to implement the existing directives for the sake of the health of their own populations and to protect neighbouring regions."@en1
