About This Statistic

Waste generated by households by year and waste category; fixed slice freq: Annual [A]; hazard: Hazardous and non-hazardous - total [HAZ_NHAZ]; nace_r2: Households [EP_HH]; unit: Tonne [T]; waste: Total waste [TOTAL]

MapTheory uses only finite ISO-mapped observations from the fixed 2022 Eurostat slice recorded below. Aggregates, missing values, non-ISO geographies, conflicting duplicate observations, and every other year or dimension slice are excluded; MapTheory never imputes or interpolates missing countries.
