The chart below shows the waste disposal in 1 European country in four years 2005, 2006, 2007 and 2008 v. 2
The bar chart illustrates the average amount of waste disposed of annually in a European country from 2005 to 2008 in terms of landfill, burning and dumping at sea. Overall, it is clear that the average amount of waste disposal using landfill declined over the period. In contrast, there was an increase in the amount of waste incinerated. In 2005, landfill accounted for the disposal of 1800 million tonnes of waste. This figure fell to 1200 million tonnes in the following year, and continued to decline until 2008, when the amount was just one-third of the figure for 2005. Although most waste went into landfill until 2007, the amount of rubbish disposed of by burning exceeded the figure for landfill in 2008. While only 500 million tonnes of waste was burned in 2005, this amount rose steadily to reach a peak of 900 million tonnes at the end of the period. However, these years saw fluctuations in the amount of rubbish dumped at sea. From a figure of 500 million tonnes in 2005, there was an increase to over 600 million tonnes in the next year, followed by a steady decline to about 550 million tonnes in 2008.
