What would make you recycle more? I know what I would like. Weekly collections and better segregation as I cannot stand having to mix stuff up and then separate it again – space is at a premium in my house, and I expect most other homes. And wouldn’t it be great if I we didn’t have to get so much junk mail and unnecessary packaging in the first place.
But what about you?
- rewards for recycling?
- regular uplifts instead of 2 weekly?
- discounted tax?
- nicer recycling facilities, under cover?
- the ability to return packaging to the originator?
- automatic opt out from junk mail, unless you opt in?
Another idea, which has a long history is to reward, by a deposit return, for returning certain items. See where it is being introduced in Scotland: http://www.zerowastescotland.org.uk/content/recycle-and-reward
