Czechs producing more waste, but more of it gets recycled

The amount of garbage produced in the Czech Republic per inhabitant has been steadily rising in the past decade, the Czech Statistical Office reports. In 2011 Czechs produced 320 kilos of municipal waste per head i.e. 41 kilos more than in 2002. However Czechs have also improved in sorting waste and 46 kilos of the waste produced annually per inhabitant can now be recycled.
