There are three basic principles of solid waste management in our country and around the world. They produce less waste, waste recycling and waste is disposed of without harming the environment.

10 The first litter disaster in our country occurred on 28th of April 1993 in Üsküdar the district of İstanbul. The slip happened because of the fact that an appropriate garbage dump had not been done in the area where the garbage dump had been done for 20 years. From 3215 municipalities in our country, only 11 of them storage has been done regularly. There is a composting facility that has been in use in our country.

13 Today, in the world 16 million hectares of forest is lost each year. -The recycling of a ton paper means that our country earns dolar because of the imports of pulp-and-paper. -When consumed 450,000 tons of paper a year can be regained only in Istanbul, 38 km2 forested area can be protected per year. -In Europe waste paper, covers 65% of the entire paper production.

14 RECYCLED PAPER In TURKEY If we look at the amount of waste paper used in Turkey, in tonnes / year; Our consumption of waste paper is generally rising. If we take into consideration that it is not possible to recover a portion of the produced paper-cartoon, the 2/3 of the returning rate (65%) should be considered as the highest yield. Typically 50-65% rate is considered pretty good evaluation. To give an example, we are at the sufficient level to compete with many European countries.

15 Turkey is following Europe in terms of recycling. Especially in terms of the battery, packaging, rubber and metal recycling there exists many experts companies and they are incresing each year.
