It may seem strange that we are going to send more plastic to general rubbish but that's what we will be doing later this month. That's because we can no longer send all types of plastic overseas for recycling. But there is good news ... since we can't recycle as many plastics as before, then we can focus upfront on our purchases and buy things with less disposable plastic. It's easier these days to get bulk bin, takeaways or deli items in your own containers. Beeswax wraps are an easy way to reduce your use of cling film. You can make your own (melt beeswax in an old roasting tin and lay your 100% cotton squares quickly and then hang up to dry) or buy locally made wraps online/in shops. When they're past their best, cut them up and compost them. You could also choose products that are stored in recyclable materials like glass, aluminum or tin. More info on:
