| What the public see is not as it is. For years the public, residents up and down the country have been diligently recycling and here and in Ealing separating most things. Plastics, Glass, Cardboard, Paper, Foodstuffs, Garden waste, Tins and Aluminium. All separated. In Ealing we even separated Glass by colour for a while. So job done, In it goes to the corresponding inlet on the truck and done by two trucks. But what happens next? Well there's a good reason that some recycling centres have more security than MoD installations. Most of it simply got tipped into one container and compressed for landfill. Only the garden waste went elsewhere, as it does not to be turned into profitable products and the glass was not recycled as we were all led to believe. Too many incompatibility issues and sheer cost of energy. So what happens now? Well most of it gets collected separately but still ends up being merged and incinerated. Some goes to landfill and some ends up recycled. But under such secrecy that something can't quite be as it seems. Except now we have collections that take up to 12 times longer, use more vehicles, cost far more money, a public recycling centre that's closed to the Public most of the time and a constantly tatty looking local environment. What is dubious are the claims by authorities that Recycling is up by X % Up from what? People still chuck out the same stuff more or less in the same way . All that's changed is the container. In fact, evident all over the borough, people clearly chuck out less. Some now burn waste and more than a few a few dump it in other peoples homes or on the street. Garden waste is collected from just 6 out of 54 homes now. If that's not a waste of resources, I don't know what is. So how has recycling increased? Massaging of statistics no doubt. No wonder people are not bothering any more. They do their bit and the authorities cock it up. |
