  1. based on this research, litters in the streets weighs 800 tons i think it is all over the world


  2. It's somewhat indeterminate.  But the figure is something like 10 billion tons for Europe.  The second link is an amercan study of their Keep America Beautiful campaign.  The figures there are in trash per mile of road.

    Local Government Performance Indicators in Europe: an Exploration

    Local governments need reliable information about the cities they are governing. However, an analysis of the availability of basic descriptive data (population data, information on household composition, unemployment, poverty, condition of the housing stock, homelessness, recorded crime and composition and size of local municipal income) in 55 European cities makes clear that these data are often not available because they have neither been collected nor disseminated. On average, 30 percent of simple local performance indicators is missing. National statistical traditions may help explaining the lack of data-gathering.
