| Post subject: | Taxes can reduce the use of new natural resources |
A recent study has investigated how taxes on virgin raw materials used in construction, such as gravel and sand, have reduced the use of these resources, based on experiences in Denmark, Sweden and the UK. However, greater incentives to recycle these materials are still needed, says the study. See: http://ec.europa.eu/environment/integra ... 262na1.pdf |
