 SOILS AND INDICATORS
 OF SUSTAINABILITY -
 WASTE UTILASATION
Soils Landcover Regional Landscapes Soils & Sustainability



Changes in the EU and UK regulatory framework 
mean that alternatives to landfill and dumping 
at sea must be found for a range of organic wastes. Recycling to land is a favoured option, but there 
are both associated benefits and risks, in large part related to properties of the soil. 

This map shows an assessment of these factors combined to give a suitability indicator.
