520 |a"Every year, a large amount of dangerous waste moves between countries. The Basel Convention is a convention between 187 countries. It is under the United Nations and has been active since 1992. This convention controls the movement of dangerous wastes and wastes collected from households between these countries. The goal is to protect the environment and human health. It is important because it also allows Canada to better manage its wastes. The countries meet every year and discuss environmental issues such as marine litter, management of electronic waste, and dangerous chemical substances. Canada is actively engaged in the work of this convention"--Plain language summary.
