    What I would like to see is some comparison - amount of waste per unit produces... because if you see the number in total, it may look really terrifying. And companies producing in huge volumes may look bad. But if you than take it per produced unit, the numbers may seem different than. Of course it is not easy if the production numbers are not available.

    How would that help anything?  Basically that's the type of statistical manipulation a large polluter would use to try to color public perception about their activities.  Make the big thing look small.

    Looking at the situation in the manner that you're describing is like saying freemium IAP is a great idea.  Sure, Bob spent $3600 to reach level 30, but if you look at it closely, each of his transactions was only $0.99.  So in essence, practically speaking, on a per transaction basis, he was really only spending a dollar.  That's an amount he didn't even miss while he was spending it.
