My National Trust mag comes in a compostable plastic bag. I also use compostable bin bags. Pricier than normal obviously but I don’t have much rubbish as I recycleJust a little note, post, of interest! Remember I said I watched Brian Cox’s new series Universe on BBC iPlayer the other night? I ordered the free poster as well & it arrived in this morning’s post & it’s wrapped in a plastic free clear cellophane looking bag that’s made from NatureFlex TM. It’s compostable, renewable & responsibility soured from wood pulp! 😎 So, there you go; there’s plastic free cellophane wrappers now!Oh! The poster looks pretty great too if you want to order it from the website or phone number at the end of each of the 5 episodes!😛
/ reuse most things and veggie peelings go in the garden compost bin. The Coop now take soft plastic to recycle, ie carrier bags, crisp packets, bread packets, cling film. I wash out bread packets and use them as freezer bags or for wrapping things in. We’ve been recycling for 35 years, when it was just cans, glass and paper and you had to travel to collection points. When they started roadside pickups I was overjoyed, and when they started picking up plastic I cried! It’s a passion of ours.
Edited to say, some Coops, not all.
