Waste & Recycling Waste - and plastic waste in particular - have been a big topic in the past year or so, with David Attenborough’s Blue Planet and other programmes highlighting the terrible effect plastic has on the environment. I often get asked ‘Why do we only recycle certain kinds of plastic in the New Forest?’ The answer is a matter of the much bigger picture. District Councils in Hampshire have diversified their methods of collection over the years, but fundamentally all Hampshire waste is disposed of by the county in the same way. General waste, including less easily recycled plastics, is incinerated and acts as fuel, generating energy and very little going to landfill, compared to other authorities. Glass, paper and more readily recycled plastics are sent to recycling plants in the UK where possible, sometimes abroad if there is no UK capacity. Districts offering food waste collection will have found their own outlets for composting collected food. You can find out what can be recycled and the current rationale for waste disposal and recycling in Hampshire in greater detail here: https:// www.hants.gov.uk/wasteandrecycling Collection and disposal of waste in a county as large as Hampshire is an expensive operation and much has been invested in our incinerators, vehicles and systems over many years. That’s not to say that the system cannot be improved. But to change such a system is a multi-million-pound project. The Government are currently developing a Waste Strategy for the UK and Hampshire is waiting to hear what the final recommendations will be before making any large-scale decisions about its current collection and disposal systems. But it is likely that we will see bottle deposit schemes, more emphasis on reusing than disposal, more pressure on manufacturers to develop and use biodegradable materials, and other significant changes to the way our waste is managed, in time.
