The amount of municipal solid waste (MSW) is the basic data of municipal solid waste management. It is an important basis for urban green planning to predict MSW output scientifically and accurately. Therefore, first this paper uses Grey Relation Analysis, and points out that the main factor affecting the production of municipal solid waste is the urban resident population. Then the Grey Prediction Model is used to predict the amount of MSW in Shanghai from 2005 to 2020. The prediction results show that the amount of MSW in Shanghai will reach 8.86 million tons in 2020. Finally, in view of the above analysis, this paper puts forward some countermeasures, so as to provide reference for the future environmental planning in Shanghai.
