Abstract
In recent decades waste generation has become one of the main environmental problems due to the impact that an incorrect management exerts on nature. Consequently, a greater environmental awareness has been spreading so that waste reduction has become its main premise. In the case of the European Union (EU), the aim of the waste legislation is based on prevention and recycling towards a more sustainable economic growth. However, despite the achievements, it is necessary to continue advancing in this line since many Members, especially those from Southern Europe, are still far away from the 2020 objectives. Therefore, the aim of this paper is to apply an Economic Input-Output Life Cycle Analysis (EIO-LCA) to analyze the volume and type of waste generated directly and indirectly in each link of the supply chain of the economic activities in Spain and Portugal.
