Recycling rate trebles

BBC News reports that the quarterly recycling rate in the SBC area has reached 29.93% - up from 10.4% last year.

No room for complacency though because to reach this year's annual target of 25% a higher recycling rate needs to be sustained until summer.

As previously mentioned here those in charge at St. Boswell's need to look at offering more kerbside recycling - because ultimately making it easier increases the recycling rate.
