Waste management in Australia started to be implemented as a modern system by the second half of the 19th century, with its progresses driven by technological and sanitary advances.[2][3] It is currently regulated at both federal and state level.[4] The Commonwealth's Department of the Environment and Energy is responsible for the national legislative framework.[4]
The waste management has different effects and applications depending on the geographical,[5] demographic[5] and behavioural[6] dynamics which it relates to. A number of reports and campaigns have been promoted.
The system is undergoing a process of reformation to establish a more consistent and circular economy-based legislation,[6] a more reliable database[7] and a stronger, more independent domestic industry.[6] These factors have hampered the development of the industry and interstate relations.[5][6]
