What a Waste!10 Feb 2021 09:12
Scary facts here. I’m surprised that Canada is at the top of this list. I believe we have a good relationship with our Canadian neighbours.
In 2018, the World Bank estimated that waste generation will increase as much as 70%—from 2.01 billion tonnes to 3.40 billion in 2050.
If the World Bank's projections are correct, waste generation will dramatically outpace population growth by more than double by 2050.
The countries that produced the most waste in 2017 were Canada, Bulgaria, the United States, Estonia, and Finland.
