1/ Data estimated in 2011. No estimate for 2010 or 2009
2/ Landing takeoff
3/ From the World Meteorological Organization's "Scientific Assessment of Ozone Depletion: 2006"
4/ Increase in recycling reported can be partially attributed to better tracking of data
5/ Regulated waste includes hazardous waste, universal waste, and other regulated waste
