*_waste_disposal methods:
"Open-loop" is the process of recycling material into other products.
"Closed-loop" is the process of recycling material back into the same product.
"Combustion" energy is recovered from the waste through incineration and subsequent generation of electricity.
"Compost" CO2e emitted as a result of composting a waste stream.
"Landfill" the product goes to landfill after use.
"Anaerobic digestion" energy is recovered from the waste through anaerobic digestion.
