The Recycle for Cornwall campaign has been developed to raise public awareness of recycling and to provide consumers with a compelling reason to recycle.
Get rid of fiddly cling film and foil, and put your food in re-sealable containers instead.
When out picnicking, choose re-usable containers and flasks to store your food and drink.
If you’re throwing a party, avoid disposable cups and plates. Use normal crockery and cutlery instead.
Rechargeable batteries make financial sense as well as cutting down on the amount of rubbish we throw away.
Nappies make up as much as 4% of all the rubbish we send to landfill each year. Using real nappies can help to reduce the impact on the environment and save you up to £500. The Cornish Real Nappy Project can provide further information and advice.
