economic benefits of sound waste management include job
creation, skills development and reduced clean-up and public health
costs.204
There is a need for setting out incentives and tools for minimizing
the generation of wastes, treating wastes as nearly as possible in
the place where they were generated, and minimizing international
movements of hazardous wastes. Reducing wastes at source would
reduce the financial incentives that drive the illegal trade that inspired
the adoption of the Basel Convention.205
Moreover, even if there are so-called state-of-the-art hazardous
waste recycling facilities in the country, these make adverse impact
on environment and health of workers due to release of toxins and
harmful emissions. It is risky and polluting business even in optimal
conditions. The ultimate answer is to minimize the generation of
hazardous waste, not recycle them
