<p style='margin:0cm;text-align:justify;font-size:15px;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif;'><span style='font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;'>This dataset presents the generation, recovery and recycling of selected waste streams. It includes all waste generated, i.e. household and other municipal waste, waste handled by the scrapping industry and other waste. Waste collected for recycling by private sources should be included. Waste material undergoing internal recycling, i.e. directly at the place of generation, is excluded.</span></p> <p style='margin:0cm;text-align:justify;font-size:15px;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif;'><span style='font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;'>&nbsp;</span></p> <p style='margin:0cm;text-align:justify;font-size:15px;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif;'><strong><span style='font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;'>Data source(s)</span></strong><span style='font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;'>: (i) OECD State of the environment questionnaire for non-European countries and (ii) Eurostat database (<a href="https://ec.europa.eu/eurostat/web/environment/database">https://ec.europa.eu/eurostat/web/environment/database</a>) for EU countries.</span></p> <p style='margin:0cm;text-align:justify;font-size:15px;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif;'><span style='font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;'>&nbsp;</span></p> <p style='margin:0cm;text-align:justify;font-size:15px;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif;'><strong><span style='font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;'>Contact</span></strong><span style='font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;'>:&nbsp;</span><a href="mailto:ENV.Stat@oecd.org"><span style='font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;'>ENV.Stat@oecd.org</span></a></p> <p style='margin:0cm;text-align:justify;font-size:15px;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif;'><span style='font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;'>&nbsp;</span></p> <p><strong><span style='font-size:15px;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;'>Dataset release date</span></strong><span style='font-size:15px;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;'>: May 6, 2025</span></p> <p style='margin:0cm;text-align:justify;font-size:15px;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif;'><span style='font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;'>&nbsp;</span></p> <div style='margin:0cm;text-align:justify;font-size:15px;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif;border:none;border-bottom:solid windowtext 1.0pt;padding:0cm 0cm 1.0pt 0cm;'> <p style='margin:0cm;text-align:justify;font-size:15px;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif;border:none;padding:0cm;'><span style='font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;'><a href="https://stats.oecd.org/wbos/fileview2.aspx?IDFile=7afb4414-b413-42f3-ad15-5c86532eab4b ">Database documentation</a></span></p> </div>
