The recycling services that are provided by Fenland District Council for their area are very useful for helping the environment. To prove this, the council says that the area now has a recycling rate of 53%, which also proves how easy it is to recycle. All of the recyclables that are passed on to Fenland District Council are used to make new products.
The Fenland District Council uses the three Rs when they talk about their program. You have probably heard of these, which stand for Reduce, Reuse, and Recycle. The council advises that before you throw out waste or recycle it, think about ways to REDUCE the amount of products that you are getting rid of. There are many ways to do this, as well as REUSE products, such as plastic containers. To RECYCLE is how everyone will be able to help save the environment.
The recycling program that Fenland District Council provides is very common: the bin system. There are three different bins that you will be given (blue, brown, and green), and they are used for different items. The blue bin is used for paper (not shredded), clean cardboard, aerosols, clean drink and food cans, aluminum foil, clean plastic bottles without the lids, and ‘tetrapak’ cartons. These are actually the most common recyclables that are found in household waste.
The brown bin is used for garden waste, uncooked and cooked food waste (should be wrapped in caddy sack or newspaper), paper or cardboard with food on it, shredded paper, and paper or sawdust bedding from vegetarian pets. The green bin is used for all of the waste that cannot be recycled, which include other plastics, sanitary products, nappies, and bottle tops.
