In 2021, the waste sector accounted for a greenhouse gas emissions volume of 20.2 million tons of CO2 equivalent. The level of emissions increased constantly until 2000, when it peaked at 24.1 million tons of CO2 equivalent. Since then, the level of emissions produced by the waste sector gradually decreased, although a new increase was observed in 2020. In that year, solid waste disposal accounted for the largest share of GHG emissions in the Italian waste sector.
