Portugal approved a €2.3 billion ($2.67 billion) investment plan through 2030 to tackle its waste disposal crisis, as dwindling landfill capacity threatens municipal operations. The government action comes as landfills near capacity, forcing officials to address what cabinet ministers describe as one of the nation's most pressing hidden problems. The funding aims to overhaul waste management systems and curb reliance on landfills by the end of the decade.
