Reduce, re-use, recycle
Are you amazed at the amount of rubbish you produce? How often do you have to squeeze all of your rubbish into the bin just to get the lid shut? Have you ever wondered what happens to the rubbish after the bin men take it away?
The majority of waste we create is the result of our shopping habits. Quite literally the food we eat, how it is packaged, the type of clothes we wear, the materials we use in everyday life – all help shape the word that we live in. The only way to reduce waste and improve the environment is to start thinking about what we buy and where we buy it.
Residents of the Black Country have been challenged to reduce the amount of waste that they put into their rubbish bin. For loads of practical tips and information on how to reduce your rubbish visit www.blackcountryrubbishchallenge.co.uk
