Metadata

Methodology:
The data was exctracted from the different Eurostat databases and indexed to 2016 = 1. Turkey is excluded because data on primary waste is not available for 2010-2016. Liechtenstein is excluded because GDP data is not available for the country. Switzerland is excluded because data on total waste and primary waste is not available. Data on total as well as primary waste (excluding major mineral wastes) are only reported for even years. Waste data for uneven years are therefore linearly interpolated.
