So 1 day after the horror of the 5p bag charge and there are still posts swimming around Facebook with people moaning about it. I was on one of these posts commenting about how its going to charity and its helping wildlife -the government- etc etc and this woman pops up waying "i re use my carrier bags as bin bags now im going to have to spend a fortune in actual bin bags" to which me and plenty of other commenters pointed out that if she actually bothered to recycle her carboard and plastics etc, she mentioned further up thread she likes to lump everything together in the black bin in bags, that she'd be able to halve the amount of space even render the black bin useless if she recycled everything accordingly to which she replied "i ain't spending time touching manky rubbish it all goes in a bin bag in one bin global warming and landfills are a myth anyway " i left it there it was already a bunfight when i last commented this morning
AIBU to think she had no right complaining if she isn't even doing anything to control her waste management? Where i live we have
Paper/cardboard box
Plastics box
Glass box
Green bin for garden waste
Black bin for anything else
Unfortunately no food waste bin yet
I don't even use bin bags anymore as everything has it own place within those boxes and bins and they get hosed out by a local man for £2 a week after bin collection day.
What is the recycling stance in other parts of the UK and what do you do ?
