There isn’t any excuse to not recycle in the UK today. Currently only 17% of household waste is recycled on average, which is much lower than other places in the EU, with some recycling over 50% of waste, according to Recycling Guide. What’s more, an astonishing 60% of rubbish that ends up in the dustbin could have been recycled.
It varies from place to place the availability of recycle options, but overall most people have access to recycle at least part of their household waste.
