Cost–benefit analysis of landfill emergency securing: Two applications in Southern Italy

open access: yesAnnals of Public and Cooperative Economics, Volume 97, Issue 1, Page 183-205, March 2026.
Abstract The systematic use of landfills as a method of waste disposal is leaving a heavy legacy in terms of environmental pollution, especially in the case of illegal or non‐compliant disposal sites. When no environmental precaution is adopted, harmful substances' release imposes relevant health risk to the surrounding population.
