EMPIRE STATE REALTY TRUST: 2021 SUSTAINABILITY REPORT
WASTE PERFORMANCE
2021 WASTE PERFORMANCE* (tons)
36% waste diversion rate in 2021
1,962 tons
Landfill ( 64% ) Recycling ( 36% )
We recycle tenant waste and construction debris throughout our entire portfolio. Our goal is to increase recycling diversion rates and the types of materials recycled, both in daily waste and in renovation and new construction.
* Waste generation is calculated on a like-for-like basis each year. 2020 and 2021 waste generation outcomes were impacted by low building utilization rates during the COVID-19 pandemic, and thus are not representative of consumption at full occupancy.
