Haven’t been so good this week, however, I am working for a company who is very environmentally friendly, so maybe I am doing more recycling at work this week.
They have boxes for waste paper, plastics, general, batteries, toner cartridges, Christmas cards and that’s just the areas I have noticed.
At home it’s been the usual:
* Vegetable peelings
* All my milk bottles that I have delivered
* Paper
I am going to start a campaign to raise the profile of milkmen. Think of all the plastic that coud be saved if more people used their milkmen.
It may be a few pence more to be delivered to your door, but isn’t it helping the environment? Apart from the fact you need never run out of milk, bread and all the other items they can deliver.
So if you know a milkman delivers near you, get your milk from him. I personally like sterilised milk and it tastes horrible in plastic cartons, so I have it delivered fresh in glass bottles, which can be recycled.
Maybe the government would think the idea good enough to pay a subsidy to milkmen, so the price can come down a bit.
