Mitigation action in the waste sector has a significant potential to reduce emissions. The sector contributes 3% of total BAU emissions in 2030. Despite small contributions to total BAU emissions, policy interventions in the sector can be highly effective. Conditional interventions can reduce the emission level in 2030 to 2.9 Mt CO2eq. This equals a relative reduction of emissions of 74.7% (-8.6 Mt CO2eq) compared to BAU emissions in the waste sector. The unconditional pathway projects a reduction of emission levels to 9.5 Mt CO2eq, which represents a relative reduction of 17.1% of sectoral BAU emissions in 2030 (-2.0 Mt CO2eq).
