2020 is here, which means the UK target to recycle 50% of our waste is closing in.

In 2017, we recycled 44.3%, which showed our growth of just 3.9% in the last five years. It’s only been until very recently that many people were aware that we might not reach this particular target, and realised the actual importance of recycling. It cannot be stressed enough that we should be doing things daily to become greener and to reduce our carbon footprint.

So why has it taken us this long to promote sustainable plans and products? And why are the vast majority of people still not listening?
