Azerbaijan's share in global waste generation is 0.15 percent, which is, in principle, not a large figure. An inventory of gases causing the greenhouse effect is being carried out in Azerbaijan, and up to date, the country has achieved a decrease in its concentration.
This has become possible owing to the state policy. New technologies are already being applied at production sites, thereby reducing the amount of waste emitted into the atmosphere, and most of the vehicles registered in the country account for Baku, and for this reason, the capital is among the most polluted cities.
