Abstract |
The article focuses on the description of current waste management practices in the Russian megalopolises exemplified by Moscow and Kazan. Based on the results of a public survey, it is possible to distinguish sustainable and unsustainable practices in the cities. According to the public, the main impediment to separate waste collection is the lack of waste management infrastructure; only 10% of the population separate their waste on their own. The development of public participation promotes the development of the linear economy where public participation in the process of decision-making is higher than in the conditions of the circular economy. The study has shown that sustainable practices featuring the utilization of less packaging and eco-friendly packaging, as well as the elements of the sharing economy are unpopular in Russia; repairing and purchasing higher-quality goods is also secondary to the price issue. |
