Onderzoek: 30% van de Engelsen zou meer kunnen recyclen
Nearly 3 in 10 people in England don’t recycle as much as they could, with 38% of those people citing confusing information on packaging or from local authorities as the reason. The findings come from a poll conducted by Serco and Future Thinking, which surveyed over 12,000 members of the general public.
Serco Environmental Service’s business, which manages waste collections for over 1 million households on behalf of 16 local authorities across England, estimates that confusion over what can be put in household recycling is costing local authorities around £45m each year as a result of contaminated waste that is unable to be processed (Persbericht Serco, 12 september 2016).
