About this Dataset

Singapore Waste Management

Context

Singapore has a new milestone of becoming a zero-waste nation as government is worried about the rising number of waste disposal. At the current pace the Semakau Landfill will run out of space by year 2035 which is an alarming situation for Singaporeans (towardszerowaste.gov.sg). Making matters worse, Singapore has limited land for building new incineration plants or landfills. The government would like to motivate citizens by sharing the total energy that the combined recycling efforts have saved every year.

Content

Our dataset is divided between two timelines, from 2003 to 2017 and 2018 to 2020. The 2020 data was manually added using the NEA website. You can find additional energy data per material type on Greentumble .
