The Tetra Pak Issue
183 BILLION Tetra Paks produced EVERY year. A maximum of 23% recycled, worldwide.
They are Use It All's, by volume, biggest incoming. (Crisp and similar packets come a close second, partly because of the good ship Triangle assiduously collecting for Use It All)).
Because they are mixed materials (plastic, card, aluminium) they are hard to recycle, though if they are pre-sorted, it becomes possible.
In Suffolk, the policy is - 'We-can't separate them at Great Blakenham, so they can't be blue-binned. We will collect them at Recycle Centres."
In Norfolk, the policy is - "Tetra Paks are becoming a major component of waste. We will collect them in your kerbside recycle bin."
So, Suffolk indeed 'Do different'.
Here's Use It All's first video - Tetra Pak Blight. Please share.
