Italy's environment minister calls waste the country's biggest mine

Original: RaiNews: Ecomondo 2026, Pichetto Fratin: "I rifiuti rappresentano la più grande miniera italiana" Il Ministro dell'Ambie

Environment Minister Gilberto Pichetto Fratin inaugurated Ecomondo 2026 in Rimini, saying waste represents Italy's greatest mine and urging investment in recycling and the circular economy. He added that Italy ranks among Europe's leaders in the sector and must now imagine the future of water management. The remarks come as the green technology fair opens.

Why now: The minister's striking framing of waste as a resource at the opening of a major environmental expo is drawing attention.
