Thank you for telling me what I should be doing. It?s always good to be told what to do by others. Actually, I have no choice but to buy food products with plastic films etc, and I am trying my very best do the right thing for the environment. From what you say, as so little is recycled there is no point in me making any effort and I am therefore tempted just to throw the whole lot away along with general refuse. Fortunately, I am a conscientious person and would not do that when I know facilities exist. If anyone can tell me whether Sainsburys have a soft-plastics recycling bin, I would greatly appreciate it. The reason for asking is because the recycling bin in the coop is quite small and I now have quite a large amount to recycle.
