Right to a safe environment An important feature of a safe environment is the rational use of natural resources, compliance with environmental requirements in the process of environmental management, including compliance with standards and limits for the use of natural resources, taking into account the scientific justification of the compatibility of environmental, economic and social interests and needs of society and the individual. Respecting citizens’ rights to a safe environment in waste management The Commissioner received 250 reports from citizens on violations of environmental rights and the omission of public authorities and local self-government bodies responsible for environmental policy. Waste management is an urgent issue for Ukraine.

According to the State Statistics Service, only in 2018, 352,333.9 thousand tons of waste (8,335 kg per person) were generated. CHAPTER 2 To the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine:
