More and more containers with non-recyclable waste arrive in Romania
More and more containers with non-recyclable waste reach our country and Romania risks becoming the landfill of Europe if the legislation is not changed – according to the prosecutors and the Environmental Guard. Authorities have been in the port of Constanța for several days and are checking the containers of waste sent from other states, but, according to the head of the National Environmental Guard, Octavian Berceanu, organized crime structures are putting pressure on all customs in Romania to introduce increasing quantities of waste in the country. All this, when in Europe, the garbage storage capacities have been exhausted and China is no longer an „open gate” – he added, yesterday, in Craiova. The head of the Environmental Guard explained that one of the methods by which organized crime structures try to introduce waste illegally in Romania is by trucks in which the first two, three bales are with various goods, and behind them are tons of waste./opopescu
