Emphasis added.

The top ten:

10: Serbia - 8.9 tonnes/person
9: Ukraine - 10.6
8: Luxumbourg - 10.8
7: Sweden - 16.2
6: Armenia - 16.3
5: Finland - 16.6
4: Estonia - 23.5
3: United States - 25.9
2: Bulgaria - 26.7
1: Canada - 36.1

Lol, file this under useless facts.

Per capita garbage production that includes industrial waste. So we get penalized because we have high construction and manufacturing compared to population?

Luxenbourg which is 8 in the list is 1/3 the size of Calgary! And their main industry is banking.

This is really bad "journalism", with click bait headlines trolling for nothing but emotion.

China isn't even on the list, they generate 10x the garbage of the USA which generates 10x the garbage of Canada.

But yeah, Canada is evil
