Each of these is defined and possible approaches to manage them described. In addition, the economic risk of resource recovery is discussed in terms of future projected and relative costs of recovery and revenues from the sale of the energy product.

A new plan of work should be drawn up based on the European Commission (EC) action programme on the environment and the action programme on packaging (given in the appendix), but now paying more attention to strict procedures. In pursuit of environmental interests, re-utilization and the prevention of the generation of waste should be taken into account when preparing Common Market policies in other fields.
