    Description:

    This infographic visually presents information on household disposal methods of textile and e-waste for the years 2017 and 2019. It also presents total household textile and e-waste diverted from landfills or incinerators and total household waste sent to landfills and incinerators for the year 2018. This infographic is based on data from the 2017 and 2019 cycles of the Households and Environment Survey and the 2018 Waste Management Industry Survey.

  • Articles and reports: 16-002-X201600114570
    Description: This study uses the Households and the Environment Survey along with the Waste Management Industry Survey, to examine the disposal and diversion activities of Canadian households from 2002 to 2013, focusing on electronic waste.

  • Table: 16F0023X
    Description:

    This report presents results and analysis of two surveys: the Waste Management Industry Survey: Business Sector, and the Waste Management Industry Survey: Government Sector.

    Information on the physical quantities of non-hazardous and hazardous waste collected, disposed of and recycled was gathered from these surveys.

    The first survey covered those operations and facilities owned by businesses that provided waste management services while the second covered operations and facilities owned by Canadian local governments and other local bodies engaged in the delivery of waste management services.

    Information on the employment and financial characteristics of businesses and local governments involved in the supply of these services is also reported.

    Description:

    Statistics Canada periodically conducts the Household and the Environment Survey to measure household actions that have, or are perceived to have, positive or negative impacts on the environment. The survey provides baseline information to use in measuring progress towards sound environmental practices at the household level. The subjects examined include consumption and conservation of energy, consumption and conservation of water, indoor environment, use of pesticides and fertilizers, outdoor air quality and consumer decisions.

  • Table: 16F0008X
    Description:

    This report presents estimates of national and provincial economic activity of the environment industry in Canada, including the revenues earned from the production of environmental goods, the provision of environmental services and the undertaking of environment-related construction activities.

    The environment industry is composed of establishments operating in a variety of industries that produce environmental goods and services. Environmental goods and services are goods and services that are used, or can potentially be used to measure, prevent, limit or correct environmental damage (both natural or by human activity) to water, air, soil as well as problems related to waste, noise and ecosystems. They also include clean or resource-efficient (eco-efficient) technologies that decrease material inputs, reduce energy consumption, recover valuable by-products, reduce emissions and/or minimise waste disposal problems.

  • Table: 16F0009X
    Description:

    Often identified as an emerging sector, the environment industry continues to evolve into a complex industry that offers a wide range of technologies and services aimed at protecting the environment and improving environmental quality. This paper analyses Canada's trade in environmental goods and services and compares it with the trade profile of the world's largest environmental market, the United States. What is Canada's trade balance among the different segments of the environment industry? What are the market drivers for environmental goods and services? The relevance of this research is magnified by the current focus on environmental technologies and their key sub-sectors such as climate change technologies, water and wastewater systems and hazardous waste management. The government recently identified these sectors as targeted growth areas for Canada.
