Denmark is one of the best recycling nations in the world, thanks to an extensive waste management system. Waste in Denmark is sorted into various categories, such as plastics, metals, glass, food waste, cardboard and more. This kind of waste sorting happens at both a household level, where residents sort their small, everyday items, and at a larger, citywide level, where residents and companies drop off their sorted waste at recycling stations. I visited a recycling center in Copenhagen to get a sense of what kinds of strategies are implemented to create such an effective waste management system.
