Un o brif bwyntiau ffocws fy Mholisi Adnoddau Naturiol Cymru yw cynyddu effeithlonrwydd adnoddau. Mae ein hadnoddau naturiol yn bwysig i ni i gyd. Mae hyn yr un mor wir heddiw ag ydoedd yn ôl yn 2010 pan gyhoeddodd Llywodraeth Cymru ei strategaeth wastraff, Tuag at Ddyfodol Diwastraff. Mae strategaeth wastraff Cymru yn canolbwyntio’n gryf ar reoli adnoddau naturiol yn gynaliadwy. Gosododd Tuag at Ddyfodol Diwastraff nodau strategol tymor hir Llywodraeth Cymru i leihau gwastraff yng Nghymru 65% erbyn 2050. Gosododd hefyd darged ailgylchu Awdurdodau Lleol, sef 70% erbyn 2025, a gwnaed y targed hwn yn statudol o dan Fesur Gwastraff (Cymru) 2010. Ni yw’r unig weinyddiaeth yn y DU i wneud hyn.
One of the main focusses of my Natural Resources Policy for Wales is increasing resource efficiency. We each have a stake in our natural resources. This is as true today as it was back in 2010 when the Welsh Government published its waste strategy Towards Zero Waste. Wales’ waste strategy has a strong focus on the sustainable management of natural resources. Towards Zero Waste set the Welsh Government’s long term strategic goals to reduce waste in Wales by 65% by 2050. The strategy also set the Local Authority recycling target for 70% by 2025 and this was made statutory under the Waste (Wales) Measure 2010. We are the only UK administration to do this.
