Extended Data Table 2 The potential range of GHG and marine debris reductions per additional dollar spent when moving from a lower to a higher level

From: Improving waste systems in the global south to tackle international environmental impacts

  1. The potential range of GHG and marine debris reductions per additional dollar spent when moving from a lower to a higher level, based on varying input assumptions for GHG emissions and plastic marine debris emissions. Where ‘No’ refers to that assumption not implemented in the model run and ‘Yes’ refers to implementation of the model run, whereas the different ratios are used for the plastic emissions, see ‘Impacts Evaluation When Improving Waste Systems’ in the Methods for details on both uncertainty management assumption sets.
