Although everyone now-adays is encouraged to recycle
as much as possible the most important thing is
to minimise waste through reduction and reuse. This
will have a significant impact on the amount of
waste going to landfill.
Examples of how you could help:
- Donate unwanted clothing and small household items to charity shops and jumble sales
- Pack your lunch in a reusable box rather than foil or cling film
- Buy loose fruit and vegetables at the supermarket
- Reuse old carrier bags, then use them as bin liners
- Compost your green waste by using a home compost bin, or take garden waste to your local household waste site (local tip)
- For picnics and barbecues avoid throw away crockery and cutlery; use washable plastic items instead
- Use refilled products where possible
- Use rechargeable batteries for toys, clocks and personal stereos
- Use ‘crates’ to take home groceries or support ‘bag for life’ schemes
- Reuse paper that has been printed on one side for shopping lists, reminders or for children to paint on
