  • Collections could start from September if plans are approved by the council's cabinet.

The article from AOL News discusses the potential expansion of food waste collection services across the UK, as proposed by the government's waste strategy. Currently, food waste collections are available in only about one-third of local authorities, but the new strategy aims to make these services universal. This initiative is part of a broader effort to reduce landfill use and promote recycling, with the government setting a target to recycle 65% of municipal waste by 2035. The strategy also includes plans to introduce weekly food waste collections and to ban certain types of waste from landfills. The move is expected to help combat climate change by reducing greenhouse gas emissions from decomposing waste, and it has been welcomed by environmental groups, although some local authorities have expressed concerns about the costs and logistics of implementing the new system.
