According to Eurostat Sweden has one of the highest disposal rates of waste in Europe https://ec.europa.eu/eurostat/statistics-explained/index.php?title=File:Waste_treatment_by_type_of_recovery_and_disposal,_2018_(%25_of_total_treatment)_30-04-2021.png https://ec.europa.eu/eurostat/statistics-explained/index.php... Can someone explain why how that fits together? Edit: seems to really depend on what kind of waste you are looking at. Sweden's landfill rate for waste excluding major mineral waste is still 8%: https://ec.europa.eu/eurostat/databrowser/view/t2020_rt110/default/table?lang=en https://ec.europa.eu/eurostat/databrowser/view/t2020_rt110/d... the 1% target is reached only for waste collected by the municipality: https://www.eea.europa.eu/data-and-maps/daviz/municipal-waste-landfill-rates-in#tab-chart_1 https://www.eea.europa.eu/data-and-maps/daviz/municipal-wast...
