How Much Waste The Australians Produce Each Year?

We Australians produce million and million tons of solid, domestic, industrial, toxic waste each year.  The total amount of waste generation has been doubled over the past decade from 22.7 million tonnes to 43.8 million tonnes.

Local governments and councils has taken significant steps to reduce the waste production and encourage recycling to minimize environmental pollution. There are many effective ways of effective waste management and recycling such as hiring skip bins from local waste management service providers. But to reduce the waste generation we have to know the areas where we are producing massive amount of waste each year.

Stockholm, Sweden

Standing at the bay of the Baltic Sea we have the capital of Sweden, one of the most clean city on this planet, Stockholm. Just a stones’ throw away from its Nordic neighbour Norway, Stockholm is often seen a modern, clean-living and stylish city to live in, possibly thanks to its infamous Ikea stores. Stockholm has come a long way in recent years to lower its levels of pollution, carbon footprint and target the natural beauty that many tourist keep coming back for.

Encompassed by 14 islands and more than 50 bridges, once a medieval town that Vikings set sail from, the modern Stockholm is a highly technologically advanced city, yet still retains its ancient charm.

Everyone loves to live in a nice neighbourhood, free of crime and graffiti, with an assortment of great local schools, shopping and hospitals, but cleanliness is one of the best examples of how when a city transforms its streets into clean and friendly neighbourhoods, the whole city benefits and reaps the rewards.

Norway is home to one of the most expensive cities in the world, let alone cleanest, but it is the local councils’ insistence on creating outdoor activity areas, clean parks and public highways that impress the most. With clean streets, parks and recreation areas, the city is able to enjoy more outside than most cities. With large teams of street cleaners and people responsible for garbage disposal, Oslo is one city that is sure to impress any visitor to the land of the Norse gods.
