Abstract
Collection and recycling of waste is one of the most important economic prob-lems in any country. There is a large amount of accumulated waste in Russia, the development of the recycling can be a source of increase of the gross national product, as well as reduction of its energy intensity. Population plays an im-portant role in formation of the recycling sector. The article lists the reasons of the currently weak involvement of the population in collection of waste. The EU waste management experience is analyzed on the basis of the data of European statistics. The conclusions on the possibility of application of foreign experience in Russia are drawn.
