Investment for growth

This strand of the programme has finished, and has resulted in the publication of the 'Investment for Growth' Report, launched at the Revaluing Resources conference in December 2009.  This can be downloaded here.

The report outlines the current value and future potential of the sector, finding that there are 700 active resource recovery organisations in England, who between them are saving 523,000 tonnes of CO2; diverting 248,000 tonnes of materials from landfill; and supporting 4,600 jobs with an additional 43,500 voluntary and training opportunities.
