520 |a"The way our economies extract, use, then dispose of resources is putting pressure on natural systems, communities and public health. Preventing and diverting waste by reusing, repairing, refurbishing, remanufacturing, repurposing, recycling and composting is a key component of a more circular economy which can help reduce the impact of solid waste on the environment. The circular economy seeks to keep products, materials and resources in use for as long as possible and then divert them from landfills to be reused in some way. Currently, most garbage collected for disposal ends up in landfills and a small amount is incinerated. This can lead to air pollutant emissions, land disturbance and water pollution. The extraction and processing of new resources needed to replace those discarded as waste leads to more pollution. This indicator tracks the amount of solid waste diverted and disposed of in Canada. It tracks progress on the 2022 to 2026 Federal Sustainable Development Strategy, supporting the target: By 2030, reduce the amount of waste Canadians send to disposal by 30%, from a 2014 baseline"--Page 5.
