I understand why recyclables move on to a more specialised site for processing but why isn’t our green waste composted locally?
We have farmland that can use it, we could sell it locally and it would bring another employment stream.
It also fulfills the requirement for ‘proximity’.
Finally, it would incentivise people to actually separate their food waste, as the majority don’t.
