Decarbonisation of Residual Waste — Australia
There is a roadmap in Australia for both extracting more energy from waste and drastically reducing the carbon footprint of every tonne that ends up in a landfill. Historically, Australia has relied heavily on burying waste, but the focus has shifted aggressively toward strict methane management and resource recovery, with policies like the NSW Net Zero Plan aims to achieve net-zero emissions from organic waste sent to landfill by 2030.
