Can demographic characteristics explain intermunicipal differences in production of municipal waste?
Original language description
Ongoing demographic changes have been influencing many aspects of society and its functioning, infrastructure including waste management is not any exception. This paper aims at quantifying how demographic variables influence the municipal waste generation in the Czech Republic. For this purpose similar variables as in studies from abroad are constructed and reviewed methods are applied on the data for municipalities from the Czech Republic in year 2011. 8 indicators for 5 887 municipalities were investigated. For the analysis correlation and multidimensional linear regression were used. The resulting regression model included average householdsize, percentage of population with tertiary education and sex ratio. The model assumptions for linear regression analysis were met and resulting model was significant but regardless, only small part of municipalsolid waste variation was explained.
