| U.S. method of computation | National tonnage totals for Municipal Solid Waste are characterized in the Advancing Sustainable Materials Management: Facts and Figures report. The total tonnage of materials recycled and those composted are added together. This sum is then divided by the total of all material waste generated. Full methodology on how tonnages are calculated is located: https://www.epa.gov/facts-and-figures-about-materials-waste-and-recycling/methodology-epas-facts-and-figures-materials |
| Comments and limitations | Tonnages from international imports and exports are included in development of the national municipal solid waste metrics found in the Advancing Sustainable Materials Management: Facts and Figures report, but the report does not include detailed information in this category. |
