The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s annual municipal solid waste (MSW) "Facts and Figures" report has been a reference for tracking how MSW is managed in the United States for more than 30 years. Rebranded "Advancing Sustainable Materials Management: Facts and Figures" several years ago, the report provides data on the generation and management of MSW, including estimates of how much food waste in the commercial, residential, and institutional sectors is generated and managed by composting, landfilling, and combustion with energy recovery.
