Germany recycles over 60% of its waste annually. This is done by having 160 landfill sites across the country which treat the waste before it is disposed of. This stops harmful gases from the waste being put into the atmosphere. Incineration removes over 212,000 tonnes of waste from the country per year this is done at Damadsty. The excess heat from incineration is shipped to European countries for example France and Great Britain. This stops the heat from being wasted. Germany disposes of its nuclear waste by paying companies in Armenia and Egypt to store the waste. Most of Germanys waste is recycled and green dot scheme makes sure local people and businesses are following the recycling rules. Recycling is made easier by having recycling points locally for the community to put their into this encourages people to recycle as they don’t have to go out of their way to help the environment.
