By doing a comparative study of several countries who utilize a circular economy, have a superior waste management system, and are an industrialized country, this thesis will come to the conclusion as to whether or not better waste management equates to a better economy in the long run. Based on the findings of the comparative study, the thesis will make policy suggestions on how to improve the United States waste management system and economy. Lastly, the thesis will seek to provide solutions and alternatives to waste management in the United States through innovative technology and processes from other countries and from original concepts.
