The article revolves around a warning regarding a draft decree in Lebanon aimed at regulating and producing fuel derived from household solid waste for use in cement factories and industrial facilities. Greenpeace and the Waste Management Coalition consider this proposal to deepen reliance on waste incineration as a permanent solution, instead of addressing the problem through waste reduction and recycling. The organization emphasizes that rushing to issue the decree without a comprehensive environmental and health impact assessment could lead to long-term pollution and public health crises, with increasing health risks associated with burning non-segregated waste, as well as environmental degradation and air pollution—especially considering Lebanon produces around two million tons of waste annually. Over-reliance on excessive incineration is seen as a step that threatens environmental and health security. It is strongly recommended to implement comprehensive policies focused on waste reduction, source separation, and recycling, and to advise against approving the decree until a thorough environmental, health, and economic impact assessment is conducted.
