国际零废物日强调加强全球废物管理的重要性以及促进可持续消费生产模式的必要性。

人类每年产生21亿至23亿吨城市固体废物。约有27亿人缺乏获得废物收集服务的渠道，其中20亿人生活在农村地区。废物污染严重威胁着人类健康、经济繁荣以及气候变化、自然环境和生物多样性丧失以及污染这三重地球危机。倘若不采取紧急行动，到2050年，我们每年产生的城市固废将达到38亿吨。

2023年，全球数百万人庆祝了首个国际零废物日，提高了人们对国家、国家以下、区域和地方零废物举措及其对实现可持续发展的贡献的认识。

零废物举措可以促进健全的废物管理，并最大限度减少和防止废物的产生。为实现#圾不可失，我们必须加强废物管理，同时改善资源回收并大幅减少废物产生。“预防、减少、重复利用、改造利用和回收”是这项事业的关键。

联合国环境规划署(环境署)和联合国人类住区规划署(人居署)为纪念国际零废物日提供便利。鼓励所有会员国、联合国系统各组织和相关的利益攸关方在地方、区域、国家以下和国家各级实施零废物举措。

On Zero Waste Day, UN Advisory Board outlines good practices

Nairobi, 27 March 2024 – To commemorate the second annual International Day of Zero Waste, the United Nations Secretary-General’s Advisory Board of Eminent Persons on Zero Waste has announced three outstanding practices in waste management from around the globe.

The Advisory Board – whose Secretariat is the UN Human Settlements Programme (UN-Habitat) and the UN Environment Programme (UNEP) – selected these good practices based on their significant contribution to the global effort to achieving zero waste, with each good practice offering insights and lessons for replication and adaptation in other contexts. One of the outstanding practices is a certification to incentivise single-use plastic reduction in the hospitality industry of Spain’s Balearic Islands. The second equips Indigenous women working in Nigeria’s cassava value chain with machines and skills to increase productivity and minimize post-harvest losses by recycling cassava peel into nutritious animal feed. The third focuses on reducing glass waste.

“As the Chair of the United Nations Advisory Board of Eminent Persons on Zero Waste, I believe that (raising) awareness of waste-free and sustainable life will be one of the most favourable legacies we can leave to future generations,” said Her Excellency the First Lady of Türkiye, Emine Erdoğan.

The dissemination of the selected good practices through UNEP’s One Planet network intends to provide citizens, the private sector, civil society organizations, governments and any actor in the waste chain with information to enable them to prioritize waste management and implement and replicate initiatives that contribute to addressing the global waste crisis.

Established under United Nations General Assembly resolution 77/161, the Secretary-General’s Advisory Board on Zero Waste promotes local and national zero-waste initiatives through awareness-raising, local and national zero-waste initiatives, and dissemination of good practices and success stories.

The International Day of Zero Waste serves as a platform to recognize and celebrate the remarkable achievements of individuals, organizations, and communities dedicated to minimizing waste and promoting environmental sustainability.

UNEP and UN-Habitat reiterated the importance of the International Day of Zero Waste in separate remarks.

“Humanity can't keep letting poorly managed waste compromise human and environmental health,” said Sheila Aggarwal-Khan, Director of UNEP’s Economy Division.

Michal Mlynár, Acting Executive Director of UN-Habitat, said: “Zero waste makes sense on every level. By retaining materials within the economy and enhancing waste management practices, we bring benefits to our economies, our societies, our planet, and ourselves.”
