The act provides for the establishment of a Pricing Strategy for Waste management Charges as well as the institutional mechanisms in a form of the Waste Management Bureau, which will fast track the implementation of the recycling economy in South Africa. Targets are set to have 25% of recyclable waste diverted from landfill and include the creation of employment and business opportunities through waste management which includes driving the recycling economy, implementing a varied regulatory system, creating jobs and SMMEs, promoting public awareness and supporting waste service delivery amongst others. Other opportunities include the remediation of contaminated land, for which a remediation fund will be established. It is acknowledged that effective waste management can contribute to job creation thereby responding to the aspirations contained in the National Development Plan, to provide a quality life for all. In this regard, The Department of Environmental Affairs has embarked on law reforms to accelerate economic growth in the waste sector focusing in waste collection and recycling. The effective and efficient management of waste is fundamental to the sustainability of any society and the four previous conferences have proved that. Now the 5th Annual Waste Management & Recycling Conference shifts focus on the wealth side of waste, to reflect on whether there is business in the Waste Management & Recycling sector. Government departments & NGOs - 15% Municipalities - 33% 52% Zakhele Mdlalose Director: Environment Department of Trade And Industry Banks: sustainability, collection companies, waste management companies, consulting companies – 52% There is a need to streamline the coordination of waste management initiatives within the country and bring together all the role players. This includes other government departments, provinces, municipalities, private sector, civil society and the general public in order to ensure that the plight of waste management is elevated. It is against this background that this conference is organized. It will provide an opportunity for participants to discuss the challenges faced in developing waste management as well as improvements and technologies used to manage waste. 30 & 31 July, 2015 Emperors Palace, Kempton Park, Gauteng Programme 08: 00 Registration and early morning refreshments 08: 00 Early morning refreshments 08: 45 Opening remarks by chairperson 08:45 Welcome to day two 09: 00 Waste management trends in Africa and developing countries · major trends and emerging issues on waste management in Africa · implementation challenges and constraints · lessons learnt and way forward Tracy-Lee Erasmus, Senior Associate: Environmental Department, DLA Cliffe Dekker Hofmeyr 09: 00 Responsible Waste Management · Gauteng: situational Analysis: Population and economic factors · the job creation imperative · ethical waste management Zingisa Smale, Director: Waste Management, Gauteng Department of Agriculture & Rural Development 09: 45 Waste Management and Recycling as a potential tool for green economy development · capacity to manage waste as a science · finance to landfills to recycling Zakhele Mdlalose, Director: Environment, Department of Trade and Industry 09: 45 Waste Transformation – Jozi @ Work Christa Venter, General Manager, Pikitup 10:30 Mid-morning refreshments 11: 00 Probiotic solutions for recycling food waste into soil food Gavin Heron, Director, Earth Pro Biotic 11: 45 Progress: Zero Plastics to landfills by 2030 · challenges identified · key actions needed to achieve the vision · some perspectives from the global plastics industry to address plastic waste Douw Steyn, Director: Sustainability, Plastics|SA 12: 30 LUNCH HOUR 13: 30 Can you make money with recycling and save the environment at the same time? · what are the major cost items in a recycling set-up if compared to landfill and litter control? · what would be required from the value chain to ensure sustainable recycling operations? · who benefits from recycling?
