Actually no, Uk recycling is a joke. variable by region from useless to bad
There is no joined up plan from producers, to council collection to recycling centre, without it its a waste of time.
Take our glass recycling bins marked out Clear, Green coloured, people seperate them into the right hole.
The lorry comes along and tips all the glass into the same container on the back.
