I know that recycling schemes aren't perfect but call me an optimist, I hope that if I try really hard to subvert the landfill supply chain, I can increase the odds that my waste is disposed of in a responsible way.
This is a video for how I throw away:
•Flexible plastics (e.g. crisp packets, bubble wrap)
•Toiletries (e.g. finished toothpaste, makeup)
•Textiles (e.g. worn clothes)
Check your Council website to see options for disposing waste
Otherwise you can look up the closest recycling programme to you: https://londonrecycles.co.uk/
Of course, it is not ideal that most of the options to recycle synthetics are done through private companies (difficult to get transparency around how items are recycled), I am hopeful this method is at least better than just putting it in the black bin!
The Non-Council options mentioned in the video:
Sainsbury's - https://www.recyclenow.com/repeat-the...
Boots - https://www.boots.com/boots-recycling...
Redonate - https://redonate.uk/
H&M - https://www2.hm.com/en_gb/customer-se...
Uniqlo - https://www.uniqlo.com/uk/en/special-...
And since recycling isn't foolproof, I try to buy natural, non-toxic materials when/where I can afford. Here are products I've invested in and rate highly (not sponsored):
Suri (compostable electric toothbrush) - https://www.trysuri.com/?srsltid=AfmB...
Fill (dishsoap, laundry liquid) - https://www.fillrefill.co/
Naturalmat (pillows, duvets) - https://naturalmat.co.uk/pages/closin...
Toast - https://www.toa.st/pages/toast-repair
Finisterre - https://finisterre.com/pages/lived-loved
I'd love to know your tips for how you minimise your footprint, so please let me know in the comments!
