As part of the Coastal Health Monitoring component of the Tuvalu IW R2R Project, baseline water quality surveys and analysis were carried from 14th to 17th September 2018. The coastal health monitoring program is designed to characterise ecological health of, and assess causal links between land based activities, and algal blooms and ciguatera occurrences in the Fogafale lagoon adjacent to populated areas of Funafuti atoll in Tuvalu. Baseline assessments of the Tafua pond, adjacent to the IW R2R demonstration dry-litter piggery site, was also conducted.
The overall generation rates of 2,904 kg/day is higher than found in the 2017 Tuvalu waste survey (Sagapolutele & Binney, 2017), which provided an estimate of 2,478 kg/day.

By volume from DWM data, 38% of incoming waste is from households and 62% from other sources, including green waste. Landfill sample, gained over 6 days featured much less construction waste than DWM data, given the shorter timeframe and put the ratio at 53% household and 47% other sources.

Greenhouse Gas Emission - Of the total 2014 emissions of 18.467 Gg CO2-e, 11.214 Gg (61%) can be attributed to the energy sector. The main GHGs emitted by Tuvalu are CO2 (60.4% of total emissions), CH4 (16.4%), and N2O (23.1%)
Trends in ODS Consumption - As a developing country, Tuvalu is listed under Article 5 of the Montreal Protocol, and therefore provided with assistance to phase-out consumption of CFCs by 2010, HCFCs by 2030, and HFCs by 2024.
