Hartlebury incinerator is a costly mistake
The proposed incinerator in Hartlebury will be fed from the waste we create right here in the city of Worcester. Instead of shipping our rubbish out to Hartlebury for incineration we as residents of Worcester must take responsibility for our own waste. We could all recycle more of our household rubbish but it is incumbent on the local councils to facilitate this by allowing more items to be recycled including aluminium foil and food wastes. There is still much we can do to increase recycling rate – many council flats currently do not even have segregated recycling bins.
The incinerator will cost millions of pounds when instead we could be increasing our recycling rates saving investment costs, raising cash from the materials we recycle and at the same time creating hundreds of jobs.
