Household waste and the circular economy in Bangkok
This report analyzes household waste practices in Bangkok, finding that 75% of waste is thrown out as trash despite high reported attitudes in favor of sorting. Organic waste is the largest component (83% of total weight) and the most difficult to manage. The study highlights the critical role of informal waste workers and economic incentives in driving recycling, while recommending that the Bangkok Metropolitan Authority prioritize organic waste and integrate informal workers into holistic waste management models.
