The given pie charts illustrate how dangerous waste products are treated in three different countries, including the Republic of Korea, Sweden and the United Kingdom.
As can be observed, the Republic of Korea and Sweden use the same three ways to deal with harmful waste, while the United Kingdom uses more diverse treatments. What also stands out from the chart is that the recycling method is mainly used in the Republic of Korea, whereas the less environmentally friendly treatment, dumped into landfills, is used in Sweden and the United Kingdom.
In detail, the recycling method takes the majority in the Republic of Korea at 69%, which is about seven times higher than that of incineration. In Sweden, surprisingly, the recycling treatment and incineration reported a nearly similar figure, accounting for 25% and 20%, respectively. Meanwhile, the landfills show more than half in comparison to others in this country, at 55%. Looking at the data in the United Kingdom, the least popular method used to deal with detrimental waste is incineration, at 2%, which is significantly lower than that of landfills for 80%. Another notable feature is the identical figure in the chemical treatment and throw into the oceans, at 8%.
