That plastic waste chart really needs to be normalised - your "compared to what?" question.
It makes Germany, Japan, the UK, the Netherlands, and Canada look appallingly bad by comparison to the US on a per-capita basis.

Yes, on the waste chart. Should have mentioned that. At the very least, the waste chart should be normalized by population and perhaps even by a measure of consumption. Agreed on the Germany, etc.
