Abstract

This paper presents an overview of basic information on waste prevention research as a means of successfully developing it for the future. A range of waste prevention studies were surveyed in order to indicate the type of studies that have been conducted so far. These cover studies such as estimation of the reduction and reduction-potential of waste and other environmental loads achieved by waste prevention behaviors ; the effectiveness of waste prevention programs ; factors related to waste prevention behaviors ; etc. The paper introduces a set of waste prevention performance indicators, which categorize waste prevention behaviors and link them to actual waste reduction. Finally, the authors also indicate several issues they feel the field of waste prevention research should currently be addressing.
