Do any of you guys recycle?

My dad isnt into recycling but I think its important!

Do you guys recycle in your home at all?

If you do, how? Do you teach your kids about it too?

Re: Do any of you guys recycle?

Yes, all or most homes in the UK are issued with recycle bins which they HAVE to use properly for plastic bottles, paper, cardboard, foil etc.

I think recycling is VERY good, what is the point of wasting the earth's resources if they can be used again, and it avoids landfill sites.

I do it religiously - means less waste goes into landfill.

yep, our county provides homes with recycle bins, you just keep collecting stuff in the bin and put it out with the trash bin for it to be picked separately. it actually reduces trash by half, kids are totally into it and its a habit now.

This.

We have a brown bin for food waste (my mum as two as she puts the teabags and eggshells in the garden), a green bin and a blue bin (plastics, cans and cardboard) and lastly, the non-recyclable waste. 4 freaking bins! And different collection days and times. It can get logistically messy.

It can be a hassle but it's okay as long as they actually recycle the stuff and it doesn't all end up in the same landfill :|
