According to the Daily Telegraph more that 100,000 tons of recyclable waste was destroyed last year, with some councils failing to recycle 10% of what was collected. Further evidence we do not need incinerators. Today it has been reported in the news that three out of four councils dump waste put out for recycling in landfill or send it to incinerators.
