Wollongong council opened the local tip to allow free acceptance of recyclable Christmas waste. Shellharbour council on the other hand had an extra collection of the recycling bin on the off week (normally collected fortnightly)
Bloody hell! It seems to me that Amazon is shouldering their responsibilities for “recycling” onto you and the deliverer’s stagger is an occupational ploy because that package could have been delivered between thumb and forefinger … did you tip him?
there was a discussion on tv saying that if your Christmas wrap scrunches up into a ball then it’s ok to recycle. If it bounces open again then it’s landfill. You’d think they would stop making the stuff that springs open.
There is absolutely no waste where Mrs LD’s tea is concerned. I do not drink tea, so I make sure she gets her favourite every time … London Strand Strong. I brew it in a 2 cup pot and then the wet leaves left are kept in a composting container with the packets fully recycled in the cardboard/paper section of the council collections
Yes waste packaging, not green tea…
And while we are on that subject I visited a lot of paper mills in my time. Mostly they were recycled paper but one was in Taiwan made from sugar cane or bagasse.
