Abstract

The paper aims to review the current global trends in municipal solid waste (MSW) management and identify the main financial mechanisms of funding this sector. Over four billion tons of solid waste is produced globally every year, negatively affecting both the ecological state of the planet and the quality of life and health of every person. The study revealed that Russia falls far behind developed countries in terms of recycling, mainly dumping waste in landfills (often unauthorized ones). In Russia, the main tools of financing MSW management are municipal fees paid by households and enterprises and budgetary allocations in the form of subsidies based on non-tax levies—recycling and environmental fees. A popular mechanism of bringing non-budgetary funds to MSW management is the public-private partnership. In the study, we analyzed worldwide and Russian experience in applying public-private partnership mechanisms to MSW management.
