Sustainable Materials Management Ron Vance Chief Resource Conservation Branch U.S. Environmental Protection Agency June 26, 2017

What is Sustainable Materials Management? A systematic approach to using and reusing materials more productively over their entire lifecycles

Weight of Nations: Material Outflows from Industrial Economies, WRI Why is SMM so Critical? “One half to three quarters of annual resource inputs to industrial economies is returned to the environment as wastes within just one year.” Weight of Nations: Material Outflows from Industrial Economies, WRI Source: Material extraction data from UNEP (forthcoming in 2016b), GDP data from UNSD (2015).

Why SMM? Materials Management accounts for 42% of U.S. GHG emissions. In 2014, the 89 million tons of MSW recycled and composted provided a reduction of 181 million metric tons of carbon dioxide equivalent emissions. The Economic Impact of the U.S. Recycling and Reuse Industry: 757,000 jobs 1.57 jobs for every 1,000 tons of materials recycled $36.6 billion in wages; and $6.7 billion in tax revenues In the U.S. in 2014, $6.8 billion was spent to bury materials with a recycling value of $8.9 billion.

New Waste and Materials Tab

Waste Tracking: Basic Terminology Waste Material Type – The 29 different categories of materials that you can track (e.g. trash, mixed recyclables, batteries, food scraps, etc.) Waste Management Method – One of 4 options for how you manage your waste and materials Donated/Reused Recycled Composted Disposed Disposed Waste Destination – One of 4 options for where your disposed waste (e.g. trash) goes: Landfill Incineration Waste to Energy (refers to incineration for energy recovery, not to landfill with gas recovery) Other/Unknown Waste Diversion – the sum of the Composted, Recycled, and Donated/Reused Materials (i.e. everything that is not disposed)

Inventory of Materials for Tracking 29 Material Types 4 Methods of Management 72 Unique Combinations

Waste and Materials Management Metrics Overall Aggregate Metrics Total Waste (Disposed and Diverted) Total Diverted Materials Includes: Recycled, Composted, and Donated/Reused Materials Only Does not include: waste-to-energy because in this case the waste is still destroyed Total for each management method (e.g. Disposed, Recycled) Total for each disposal destination (e.g. Landfill, Incineration, Waste-To-Energy) Detailed Metrics each type of waste (e.g. Recycled – Cardboard) Total Cost and Tons Estimated Data Flag All metrics can be pulled in a custom report and download to Excel If you want to create different aggregate metrics you can Can perform your own calculations for universal waste, energy recovery, or other areas of interest relative to your sustainability goals.  The waste data does not impact your ENERGY STAR score or calculated emissions
