Recycling Bins – a saviour or a nuisance?
Every other Wednesday, I put my numerous recycling bins out, and over the last year or so, the number of boxes, bags and bins allocated to me by my Council has increased – I now have 6! A wheelie bin for “general waste”, a food bin, a paper bag, a glass and metal box, a plastic box and a garden waste bin. Oh, and my Mum has all of these plus an ash bin (she lives in the country and has a real log fire).
I was thinking that I will have to put them all out tonight, and it got me thinking – that amount of plastic is very useful to those of us that recycle. But to those that do not, surely this is a total waste? The viscous cycle is that if they weren’t there, noone would use them anyway, and if they are there at least people have the option.
I do like the way other countries enforce recycling upon their inhabitants; I think that this is the way forward.
