16. Stresses that by 2050 the EU’s use of resources needs to be sustainable and that this requires, inter alia, an absolute reduction in the consumption of resources to sustainable levels, based on reliable measurement of resource consumption throughout the entire supply chain, strict application of the waste hierarchy, implementation of a cascading use of resources, notably in the use of biomass, responsible and sustainable sourcing, creating a closed loop on non-renewable resources, increasing the use of renewables within the limits of their renewability, phasing out toxic substances, in particular where safer alternatives exist or will be developed in line with current legislation on chemicals, so as to ensure the devel ...[+++]opment of non-toxic material cycles, and improving the quality of ecosystem services;

This will include applying the waste hierarchy in accordance with the Waste framework Directive and the effective use of market-based instruments and measures to reduce the generation of waste, to promote reuse, to ensure high quality recycling and non-toxic material cycles so that waste can be used as a major, reliable source of raw material for the EU.; and to ensure that there is a high-quality source segregation system in place, energy recovery is limited to non-recyclable, non-biodegradable and non-compostable materials; that landfilling of recyclable, compostable and combustible materials is effectively phased out, except for cer ...[+++]tain hazardous waste where landfilling would represent the safest disposal method and that hazardous waste is significantly reduced and otherwise safely managed. Illegal waste shipments are eradicated (including by the use of more stringent monitoring) and internal market barriers for environmentally-sound recycling activities in the EU are removed.

(d) Developing by 2018 an EU strategy for a non-toxic environment building on horizontal measures to be undertaken to ensure: (1) the safety of nanomaterials and similar advanced materials; (2) the minimisation of exposure to endocrines disruptors; (3) appropriate regulatory approaches to address combination effects of chemicals and (4) the minimisation of exposure to chemicals in products, including, inter alia, imported products, with a view to promoting non-toxic material cycles and reducing indoor exposure to harmful substances.

Additional efforts, including on the prevention front (e.g. to reduce food waste) are needed to: achieve a significant reduction of waste per capita in absolute terms, limit energy recovery to non-recyclable and non-compostable materials, phase out landfilling of recyclable, compostable and combustible materials, except for certain hazardous waste where landfilling would represent the safest disposal method, promote reuse, ensure high quality recycling and non-toxic material cycles, and develop markets for secondary raw materials.

If a mixture is formed by diluting another tested mixture or substance with water or other totally non-toxic material, the toxicity of the mixture can be calculated from the original mixture or substance’.
