Daily Telegraph: "Recycling dumped in landfill"

Link to Daily Telegraph

"Nearly 200,000 tons of "contaminated" recycling painstakingly collected by householders was dumped in landfill or sent to incinerators last year, according to official figures.

"Gary Porter, the chairman of the Local Government Association Environment Board, said councils are improving recycling rates, but admitted that collection systems must improve:
"It's not just how much recycling we do that's important, it's also how we do it."
