Which of the following actions would not reduce the per capita generation of solid waste?
installation of waste-to-energy incinerators
Which of the following statements is the best description of the total MSW generation between
1960 and 2010?
Between 1960 and 2005, total MSW generation increased at a steady rate. After 2005, total
generation leveled off.
