I engaged in a wee mission a while ago in complement. To try and get a better structure across the topic from now on:
ARTICLES
Sink your waste
Comparison of Carbon Footprint - bear in mind this is from the site of a company that advocates putting stuff in it's products.
Recycling & Waste World - WRAP’s food waste report comes under fire - I do believe Junkkly eyebrow was cokced a while ago in this regard. Mind you, I also had an issue with some aspects of their critic's products (which also apply to any composter), namely the caution on inhaling fungal spores.
Indy - Waste watchers: Save cash and the environment
Times - NEW - Shanks builds first anaerobic digestion plant to harness potato peel power
INFORMATION
Junkk.com promotes fun, reward-based e-practices, sharing oodles of info in objective, balanced ways. But we do have personal opinions, too! Hence this slightly ‘off of site, top of mind' blog by Junkk Male Peter. Hopefully still more ‘concerned mates’ than 'do this... or else' nannies, with critiques seen as constructive or of a more eyebrow-twitching ‘Oh, really?!' variety. Little that’s green can be viewed only in black and white.

I believe in freedom of speech. But I also don't like bullies on blogs, even verbal ones, as they can drive away those with something valid to say... or offer.
Subjective is fine, but well argued and substantiated is even better. Calm and polite tops. Anything that crosses my personal line will not go up. There may be reasons given, but not guaranteed.
I'm not too keen on 'Anon' as a handle (and the content usually explains why), so if that's what you opt for it may not make it. Sorry.
Some interesting facts and figures in there. Not least this one - "greenhouse gas emissions from the centralised collection and in-vessel treatment of food waste are greater than those associated with household treatment by a factor of between 10 and 40."
ReplyDeleteThat's a pretty strong case for household treatment of food waste.
If it's fair, and I care... I'll share.
ReplyDeleteI will await any response... if I get it.
This issue seems 'volatile'!
