Reducing landfilling has become more than a question of reducing pressure on land use but rather a question of habitability for our species on earth. Landfills cause irreversible damage to local ecosystems and landfilling materials which can be easily recycled seems inherently shortsighted. Furthermore, the redirection of construction and demolition waste from landfills and illegal dumpsites is an issue many countries struggle to find their way around. Identifying the critical factors affecting successful construction and demolition waste reverse logistics operations may be the start to successful mitigation.
