The study analyses the economic and environmental performance of the 353 municipalities in the region of Campania in waste disposal and collection services. The study consists of three steps. Firstly, municipal performance in waste management services from a linear economy point view is assessed. Secondly, a circular economy paradigm is considered, and the economic (costs minimization) and environmental (unsorted waste minimization) performance is measured jointly. For these propose, two different Data Envelopment Analysis models are employed using the information provided by the Institute for Environmental Protection and Research for the year 2016. Third, in order to rank the most virtuous municipalities toward a circular economy paradigm, the study defines a measure of the efficiency deviation from environmental sustainability. The results show a cluster of municipalities in the metropolitan area of Naples and Caserta with a worse performance in the environmental dimension but with a good performance in the economic dimension. The succession of national and regional regulations has accentuated the uncertainty in the executive process and in the management of the waste cycle, creating a regulatory vacuum. Local governments should act on citizen motivations, promoting awareness on environmental issues, and should implement time-saving collection methods.

衡量坎帕尼亚市垃圾收集和处理服务效率与欧盟目标的差异
该研究分析了坎帕尼亚地区 353 个城市在废物处理和收集服务方面的经济和环境绩效。该研究包括三个步骤。首先,从线性经济的角度评估市政在废物管理服务方面的绩效。其次,考虑循环经济范式,并联合衡量经济(成本最小化)和环境(未分类废物最小化)绩效。对于这些建议,使用环境保护与研究所提供的 2016 年信息,采用了两种不同的数据包络分析模型。环境可持续性的效率偏差。结果显示,那不勒斯和卡塞塔大都市区的一组城市在环境方面表现较差,但在经济方面表现良好。相继出台的国家和地区法规加剧了执行过程和废物循环管理中的不确定性,从而造成监管真空。地方政府应激发公民的积极性,提高对环境问题的认识,并实施省时的收集方法。相继出台的国家和地区法规加剧了执行过程和废物循环管理中的不确定性,从而造成监管真空。地方政府应激发公民的积极性,提高对环境问题的认识,并实施省时的收集方法。相继出台的国家和地区法规加剧了执行过程和废物循环管理中的不确定性,从而造成监管真空。地方政府应激发公民的积极性,提高对环境问题的认识,并实施省时的收集方法。
