Lombardy is a Region in northern Italy, with a population of 10,000,000 people and 1546 municipalities. Recently it drafted the new regional waste management plan, setting a new target in terms of recycling rate (65% for each municipality, to be achieved by 2020). In order to achieve this high target, the Region recognizes the key role of food waste as the first fraction to be separated by citizens. In Lombardy, currently more than 600 Municipalities have already implemented the kerbside collection scheme based on biodegradable and compostable bags for the collection of food waste only, without garden waste.
This scheme have proven to be comfortable for citizens, economically viable and also environmentally friendly as a detailed LCA study shows. Thus, it has been identified by the regional plan as a general model to be spread. According to the new plan, by 2020, each municipality have to set up food waste collection, including smaller municipalities. The big city of Milan (1,300,000 people) already implemented it on almost the whole part.
