The icons are versions for the NWR 2018 ‘free’ – we propose to pay for more appropriate graphics. Some figures are dummy numbers. The elements included are likely to change and expand for example, the final figure will also show waste exports. – Specific visualisations Table 26 lists the main visualisations we plan to include in the NWR 2018. Key observations about this list: it is affected by the planned shift in focus away from presentation by state and territory to presentation by flow concept (generation, recycling, energy recovery, disposal, recovery rate), as set out in Table 21 on page 42 the areas covered in the NWR 2016 are nearly all covered in the list, but we do not plan to present recovery rates by source sector for each state and territory.
