You may have heard recently about China issuing a ban on waste imports into the country. The United States, the United Kingdom, the European Union and Japan were among those that exported most of their waste to China, so what will happen to all the waste you generate in Stevenage now?.
Well, according to a government environment scientist, plastic waste should be stored in landfill sites until it can be mined.
It was argued that landfill could be a far better solution than incineration for waste because it could be mined at a later date and turned back into a useful product. This opinion came in the wake of the Chinese ban.
Huge bales of used plastic bottles and other waste are being stockpiled around the country because they can no longer be sent to China, which took fifty five percent of the waste plastic exported by the United Kingdom as of 2016.
China was literally the dumping ground for more than half of the worlds plastic waste before the ban. The country was importing almost nine million metric tons of plastic waste a year.
China began importing waste in the 1980s to fuel a growing manufacturing sector. It grew a whole waste processing and recycling industry, but poor handling of waste products and a lack of effective supervision turned the country into a major polluter. Thisis areputation that China are very keen to leave behind and are now pushing for a far greater use of renewable energy and have even become a leading light in green finance projects.
Here at Stevenage Skip Hire we sort all your waste and ensure that 95% of the waste materials we collect are recycled. Clearly some of the waste we take will end up in land fill sites, but we do our very best to ensure that the majority of it is recycled and put to good use.
When you think about it, very little of the materials we throw away cannot be recycled or re used in some way. Green materials and wood willbe chipped ready for composting and hardcore is crushed and is frequently used in building projects.
At Stevenage Skip Hire, we are committed to disposing your waste in an environmentally-friendly way. At least 95% of waste is recycled. At our recycling centre in Stevenage, we segregate all waste before processing all products.
