This publication covers annual provisional estimates for the carbon impact of local authority collected waste from households in England. These statistics are based on data submitted by all local authorities in England to WasteDataFlow on the waste they collect and manage and “Carbon WARM” emission factors calculated for Defra by WRAP.
The statistical notice contains detail on the methodology and gives background and context to these statistics and the waste and emission measures they present.
These statistics are experimental. They are a work in progress and will be subject to revision as more up to date composition data becomes available and methodologies are improved.
These statistics are based around the local authority collected waste from households measure, part of a set of statistics published annually.
