More and more places are accepting all sorts of items for recycling these days, but how do you know what to recycle and where to take it. Most local authorities have guidelines to help you and most will have a website detailing what is accepted and what isn't.
Here in Yale College in the LRCs at Grove Park and Bersham Road you can recycle paper, batteries, plastic, CDs, and DVDs. You can easily locate these by the specially marked containers.
The website RecycleNow! lets you enter your postcode and it will show you what recycling centres or other options are available to you.
Freecycle lets you post items you don't want and links you up with people who do want your items. A recycling swap shop.
Food waste is another big area for improvement and we are all being encouraged to compost organic material. A great site for composting tips and more is WigglyWigglers.
