More waste sent for recycling than landfill for the first time

Residents in Birmingham complained about uncollected rubbish before Christmas, unaware that the City Council had suspended collections. The Council stated that collection dates were publicized and would resume on Wednesday. This situation highlights the large amount of waste generated, with 22.9 million tons produced by households in England last year. For the first time, councils are recycling more waste than they send to landfills.
