Abstract

Brexit leaves the United Kingdom (UK) with a unique opportunity for environmental innovation through the implementation of a set of national policy documents (25 Year Environment Bill; Resources and Waste Strategy; Industrial Strategy). Yet, statutory targets for waste reduction and recycling progress within the UK have largely been steered by more progressive European Union (EU) regulations (Waste Framework Directive 2008/98/EC).
