Waste management is an important aspect of environmental protection and is thus a central issue for BASF. This is one area in which we provide support to the communities in which our sites are located. In 2006, for example, we worked with the city of Altamira, Mexico, and German Technical Cooperation (GTZ) to develop a new waste management concept for the city. Together, we identified the major problems and planned how to reduce the amount of waste generated and increase recycling. In this way, we helped the city to deal with one of its greatest environmental problems.
In Indonesia, we also work with the local authorities and offer support in the area of waste management. Here, our efforts include measures to sensitize the inhabitants of the city of Cengkareng to the problem of waste.
