Trash Talk

 This time we are taking a deep dive into the 10 household items lying around your house that you didn't know you could recycle or reuse!

From Old CDS & DVDS (Are they still a thing?) to how to get rid of your old, scraggy toothbrushes, this blog has got it all the info you need on what items can be recycled. 

So you want to do your bit for your neighbourhood and start a public, community clean up? 

Well, we doth our cap to you, we are proud of you...but it isn't going too be easy! 

Organising a community clean up is a very powerful way of bringing people of all walks of life together for one common goal...to make your neighbourhood cleaner and create a more positive environmental living area.

By 2050, the world is expected to produce 3.4 billion tonnes of waste yearly, That is the same amount as 17 million blue whales!

With these staggering figures in mind, how can the world possibly stop and reduce the waste?

Today we are going to find out! 

With the UK and world population, growing minute by minute, day by day, the amount of stomachs that needs filling is growing too, which means a lot more food floating around the nation then ever before.

Now, with all this food being passed around and devoured, you would think that the UK would have their food recycling program running efficiently, smoothly and like a well-oiled machine right? 

Unfortunately, wrong! 

Sports & Leisure clubs...the place where you can get your sweat on or relax and enjoy yourself. 

From sports stadiums and arenas to recreational parks and entertainment venues, these spaces generate significant amounts of waste during events and day-to-day operations. This is why waste management plays a vital role in keeping our favourite leisure spots clean and green.

Whether its the Gym or your local sports venue, without efficient waste management, these places of leisure & fun could easily turn into a waste filled nightmare!

Now you may read the title and be thinking...'What do you mean by improper waste disposal'?

Well, in a nutshell, improper waste disposal is any time that you chuck rubbish away, without using the proper techniques. This could be anything from: Littering, Burning, Dumping or Fly-Tipping!

You may not know this, but even by throwing a tiny bit of litter on the floor, you are having a big impact on the environment around you...and not in a positive way!
