Special Edition of the
Sustainable Materials Management Listserv
Webinar: Material Characterization and Economic Impacts of Recycling - 2020 Reports
February 25, 2021 -- 2:00 pm - 3:30 pm Eastern time
[Report covers]


In 2018, the United States generated more than 292 million tons of municipal solid waste. Measuring waste generation and how it is managed characterizes the national waste stream and is an important foundation for managing materials.

Join us for a webinar on the latest information reported in EPA’s most recent Advancing Sustainable Materials Management (SMM): Facts and Figures 2018 report. EPA will present on trends in U.S. materials generation, including recycling, composting, combustion with energy recovery and landfilling.

The second half of this webinar will cover economic indicators and trend data such as personal consumer expenditures, commodity values and tipping fees included in the latest Recycling Economic Information report. This report examined the larger economic implications of material reuse and recycling.

The purpose of this listserv is to share information about sustainable materials management (SMM), the systemic approach to using and reusing materials more productively over their entire life cycles. By looking at a product's entire life cycle, we can find new opportunities to reduce environmental impacts, conserve resources and reduce costs.
