We are due to get the food waste collection system soon. With everyone getting garden waste collection for free (up to now you could stick bags out for free or pay £30 pa for a green bin to be collected fortnightly but not in the winter).

Problem is, the most polluting waste is food waste which as it decomposes in landfill creates methane. However the residual waste & recyclables are what fills the holes in the ground the quickest. Just wish we had all wheely bins rather than the stupid recycling boxes with the useless lids.

Anyone who has to sort their waste should check what the bin men actually do when they collect recycling. Ours only separate the glass, the rest gets jumbled together.
