The Destination of Solid Waste from Innovative Companies: the “To do good Law” and its role in environmental and social sustainability

Abstract

This paper examines how Law n. 11.196, of November 21, 2005, known as “To do good Law”, can contribute to environmental and social sustainability. The “To do good Law” grants tax incentives for companies to carry out technological innovation. The article follows a qualitative analysis, based on bibliographical and documentary research, to argue in favor of the conciliation between the policy of technological innovation and the National Policy of Solid Wastes. Thus, it proposes the adoption of environmental and social responsibility strategies by the companies in relation to solid wastes as a way of social inclusion of waste pickers inserted in collective organizations.

Keywords:
Waste pickers; Environmental and social sustainability; “To do good Law”
