Discuss the ways in which toxic wastes are regulated internationally by the 1989 Basel Convention
What will be an ideal response?
Toxic and other wastes are regulated by the 1989 Basel Convention on the Control of Transboundary Movements of Hazardous Wastes and Their Disposal, which came into force in 1992 . The convention forbids the export of "hazardous wastes and other wastes" to nonstates parties and to states parties unwilling or incapable of safely accepting them, and it forbids states parties to import wastes unless they can safely manage them. It also requires states parties to take appropriate actions to minimize their own production of hazardous wastes.
