A Review of Empirical Applications on Food Waste Prevention & Management [PDF]
arXiv, 2018 Food waste has a significant detrimental economic, environmental and social impact. Recent efforts in HCI re-search have examined ways of influencing surplus food waste management. In this paper, we conduct a research survey to investigate and compare the effectiveness of existing approaches in food waste management throughout its lifecycle from ...

Policy evaluation of waste pricing programs using heterogeneous causal effect estimation [PDF]
arXiv, 2020 Using machine learning methods in a quasi-experimental setting, I study the heterogeneous effects of introducing waste prices - unit prices on household unsorted waste disposal on - waste demands, municipal costs and pollution. Using a unique panel of Italian municipalities with large variation in prices and observables, I show that waste demands are ...
