AGP Executive Report

Last update: 4 hours ago

Solid Waste & Governance: A new round of debate over Lebanon’s solid waste crisis is resurfacing around the January 2026 amendment to Law 38 and the role of the National Solid Waste Management Authority (SWMA), with critics pointing to how politics and incentives have kept recycling and disposal stuck. Environmental Performance: Lebanon scored 39.7 in the 2026 Environmental Performance Index, placing it in the lower tier among Arab countries, with the index spanning air quality, water, waste, biodiversity, agriculture, deforestation and climate. Water & Land Restoration: The Schuylkill River Restoration Fund awarded nearly $655,000 for watershed projects aimed at restoring streams, cutting runoff, and protecting drinking water—an example of sustained, local-focused funding for environmental outcomes. Industrial Safety (Regional): An ammonia gas leak at Jordan’s Aqaba port injured 14 people, prompting controlled on-site response and precautionary evacuations within the facility. Southern Lebanon Security Pressure: Lebanon urged the UN to reconsider a “premature” UNIFIL withdrawal, warning that changes since March have increased the risk of a security vacuum—conditions that also threaten environmental recovery and basic services.
