Canadian environmental sustainability indicators : solid waste diversion and disposal. : En4-144/71-2017E-PDF
"Most garbage collected for disposal ends up in landfills and a small amount is incinerated. This can lead to air emissions, land disturbance or water pollution. The extraction and processing of new resources needed to replace those discarded as waste leads to more pollution. Diverting waste by recycling and composting can help reduce the impact of solid waste on the environment"--Solid waste diversion and disposal indicator, p. 5.
