Want to Know More
Diversion rate measures the effectiveness of waste management programs by showing how much material is kept out of landfills or energy-from-waste facilities. It is calculated by dividing the amount of diverted waste by the total waste generated, then multiplying by 100 to get a percentage. High diversion rates indicate successful recycling, composting, and reuse initiatives, while low rates suggest room for improvement in waste reduction strategies. Diversion rate is a key metric for municipalities, businesses, and sustainability reporting.
