Willow Posted March 19, 2008 Share Posted March 19, 2008 To be honest I'd be quite happy with a fortnightly rubbish collection. We recycle and try to avoid buying things with excess packaging. We have about 1/2 normal bin of rubbish a week for a family of four and 2 cats (cat food pouches are the main thing I like to see go every week ). I did a session on recycling with our cub scouts and got them to keep a recycling diary for a month towards their global challenge badge. One poor lad's mum just didn't recycle anything and he couldn't persuad her so I accepted a blank diary as it was accurate. I hope it continues to make him think about it a little. Some of the parents were pleased and said it made their kids more aware of the need to put tins etc in the recycling rather than the bin !
