ABSTRACT

The scenario results in this chapter cover only Austria, Finland, France, Italy, the Netherlands, Sweden, the United Kingdom, and the former West Germany Due to the preliminary nature of the data and the simplified approach, the inventory results must be interpreted with care; they show only possible trends of environmental impacts from recycling. In general, several of the environmental impact trends seem to be decreasing with increased recycling, but contraventional trends can also be seen. All the figures ( Figures 6.1 to 6.20 ) are given for one kilotonne of paper and board consumed.
