| Tiivistelmä: | The increasing amount of solid household waste is perceived as a problem in urgent need of solution in all industrialized countries. In this article the relation between household waste production and consumption style is assessed. The popular hypothesis that the growth in household waste production in recent decade is caused by the rising processing level (and hence the increasing packaging intensity) of food is tested. In its simple form this hypothesis is refuted. Most of the growth in household solid waste in the industrialized countries can be satisfactorily explained by quantitative growth in consumption. |
