We had a note put on our normal bin a while back about making sure your recyclable waste goes in the correct bin.
I actually wouldn't mind separating the stuff, if we were given a 'real' recycling bin. What we have is basically a black storage box, that only gets collected once a fortnight. You can't add bags at the side of it either.

My green bin hasn't been collected for ages despite putting the thing out, they either moan that it is to heavy or the lid is 3mm open.... have tried standing on it but it don't stay down...
I'm gonna put it out next week and wait for the lazy ****ers to make an appearance and then load the bastid bin on to the truck myself!!!
If they didn't want to do manual work and collect rubbish they should have got a proper ****ing education!!

That is the issue I have with our white bag. Fair enough I can fill it to the brim with plastic bottles and cereal boxes etc. BUT, when they just throw the bad at the bottom of the street, and it gets blown away. I get annoyed. I want to 'reduce my carbon footprint'.... so give me a proper bin, and empty it!
Two weeks worth of recylable waste (most stuff can go in there now) will simply not fit in a storage box/bag.
I don't think they really care about being green. They just want to be seen to be doing something and it's a good excuse to fine people etc. for 'breaking the rubbish rules'.

Thats true, I don't think that the local councils care what the outcome is, as long as they are seen to be doing something, or 'making an effort to reduce' something.

Plus they downsize every year so they are theoretically quids in already as they have less people to pay.
To be fair, it's not the local goverments fault...... It's the main goverments fault for dishing out less money to the local goverments and they have to make up the short fall somewhere.
