dc.description.abstractPart I of this Article examines the environmental issues related to waste, with a focus on the current state of recycling and the important role that waste pickers play in Brazil. Part II unfolds the social aspects of the waste management crisis in Brazil, exposing the neglect and vulnerability of waste pickers. Part III provides an overview of the Brazilian legal system and analyzes the framework for regulating waste management at the municipal, state, and federal levels—identifying the structural reasons for the mismatch between the statutory context and the reality of neglect and vulnerability facing waste pickers. Part IV performs a literature survey on Payments for Environmental Services (PES) and demonstrates that these schemes have the potential to integrate social justice in waste management models in the Global South. Part V analyzes a bill before the Florianópolis legislative body that aims to integrate waste pickers into the waste management system through the implementation of PES.en_US
