Rotary International is an international association of business people and leading professionals. The official goal is to encourage and embody community service as the foundation of creative entrepreneurship.
“The first and most effective steps in waste management are to prevent and reduce their generation. Back in 2018, independent organizations estimated that significantly reducing the amount of waste in landfills and incinerators would cut greenhouse gas emissions by the equivalent of shutting down 21% of coal-fired power plants.
The Zero Waste approach is one of the fastest, cheapest and most effective climate protection strategies. Currently, large industrial companies maintain their image as climate-responsible, so the report caused a lively discussion and high-profile questions,” Anna Kurbatova.

“Excessive and unjustified consumption is one of the biggest problems of our planet. This has led to excessive energy consumption in the production of goods that become garbage soon after consumption.
This continues to deplete non-renewable resources (eg metals, fossil fuels) and degrade renewable resources. It also leads to the formation of a huge mass of waste polluting the environment, and additionally affects the climate. The impact of waste on the climate occurs not only at the stage of energy production for sometimes unnecessary things, but also at the stage of storage or disposal of waste using inefficient technologies,” said Anna Kurbatova.
