The pie charts below show how dangerous waste products are dealt with in three countries.

The pie charts compare the different ways of handling harmful

waste

in the

Republic

of

Korea

,

Sweden

and the United Kingdom.

It is clear that

in the

Republic

of ,

Korea

hazardous wastes are mainly recycled,

while

in

Sweden

and the ,UK they are more likely to be buried. Burning the

waste

is the

last

choice for the three above-mentioned countries to deal with these

waste

products. In both the

Republic

of

Korea

and

Sweden

, the methods of

waste

disposal are the same, just differing in proportion. Recycling is the first option in the

Republic

of

Korea

, with a figure of about 70%, followed by 22% being buried underground and 9% being burnt by fire.

However

, more than half of the dangerous wastes in

Sweden

are dealt with under the soil, and only a quarter of them are reused. In the UK, there are more ways to be seen. By far the biggest amount of

waste

is buried, around 80% and a mere 2% is destroyed by fire. Other methods,

such

as chemical treatment, or dumping the

waste

into the sea,

also

play a non-negligible role in

waste

disposal, with a percentage of 8% each.
