*Based on U.S. EPA national estimates. EPA reports approximately 60 billion pounds of food waste generated annually, with a substantial portion landfilled, and approximately 40 billion pounds of yard trimmings generated annually, much of which is composted or otherwise recovered. These figures and management estimates are reported in the EPA’s Sustainable Management of Food and Advancing Sustainable Materials Management: Assessing Trends in Material Generation and Management in the United States reports.
