Policy incentives for waste prevention. An economic approach to design for recycling

A boundaries and flows perspective of green supply chain management

“…Regulatory boundaries may also play a role in the economic boundaries for organizations. For example extended producer responsibility regulations typically make the original equipment manufacturer economically responsible for the whole life of a product (Chen and Sheu, 2009;Krozer and Doelman, 2004). We have already mentioned the issue of potentially responsible parties that focus on the legal boundaries, which may also define the economic boundaries of fines and penalties associated with poor environmental supply chain practices related to these practices for which an organization may only be peripherally responsible.…”

“…how these policy instruments and their combination would contribute to the achievement of the two EPR objective families. The discussion of economic instruments is intentionally avoided because there exists a sizable body of knowledge about the issue (see Bohr 2006;Calcott, and Walls 2005;Eichner, and Runkel 2005;Krozer, and Doelman 2003;Fullerton, and Wu 1998). In general, most studies fi nd that a combination of a front-end tax and a subsidy for recycling is an effective way to provide economic incentives for design improvements while guaranteeing high utilisation of product and material quality.…”

Modele de afaceri circulare

“…Acest lucru este mai relevant în contextul actualei pandemii, care a slăbit multe părți ale economiei. Este de menționat că abordarea economiei circulare reduce externalitățile și epuizarea resurselor, deoarece micile îmbunătățiri în proiectarea durabilă a produselor pot duce la eficiența resurselor în procesele de producție (Cooper, 1999;Camilleri, 2018). Conceptul se concentrează pe reproiectarea sistemelor de producție și servicii.…”
