Ready, steady...er...

Rubbish charging given go-ahead - Confused? You will be:)

You put your green glass in. They take the PEP 1 out. You put your compost in. They take the Tetrapak out. And you shake it all about (actually, there's a fine for that). You do the ok-dokey and you tick a box... that's what it's all about!

Strange that nowhere in the Beeb's article does it mention that this U,U,U turn (I may have missed one or two U's out there as I was getting dizzy) will come about as a result of the new climate change bill as was posted yesterday.
See 'Climate change bill to be stronger?' below.

"It definitely won't be a tax".........

Now where I have heard words just like that before?

......."It is more an incentive to encourage people to recycle so it would be cost neutral in that the people who refuse to do any recycling would be paying for the people who do lots."

Sorry if I'm being dumb here, but surely that means that it IS to be a tax on those that don't recycle?

See this from silicon.com for the whole story.
