in Finland we have same thing as uk, they basically just outsource their work to their paying customers :D so no, no recycle from me, until i got something back... that service model from Singapore is the thing what we all need!
In Germany we have the black bin for not recycling the yellow one for recycling and blue for everything related to paper. At least that’s working somehow 😅
I live in the UK and have never seen those bags before. Must be a Cornwall thing. We have 3 wheelie bins and a small green locking bucket. Garden waste (lawn clippings, hedge clippings etc) go in the green wheelie bin. recycling (Plastic, paper cardboard, metal and glass) goes in the blue wheelie bin and general waste (everything else) goes in the grey wheelie bin. The small locking bucket is for kitchen scraps.
@@kaihendry I think it is dependent on the recycling processing plant that your local council authority uses. Regional differences. Forgot to add the Garden waste wheelie bin costs an extra £60 per year to have it picked up. Is that the same down in Cornwall?
@@kaihendry I guess you can't sort everything at home... so, you put close things together, and then on a factory (?) they double-sort it. Also, about composite materials - If it's easy to separate it, I usually do it, but in most scenarios composite stuff are going to general waste. Except case when recycling company approves some of composites (e.g. Tetra Pak)

The envelop like coffee cup considered as non-recyclable item.
Please submit a diff to patch UK recycling. 🙂

So you combine paper and cardboard .. nice
