    Do you recycle? Are you a regular recycler or do you just recycle when you remember or when it's convenient?

    I try my best to re-cycle everything I can and as much as I can.

    They say there has been an 85% reduction since they brought in the 5p carrier bags, which IMO is great. They are now talking about charging for plastic bottles... You buy the bottle, and the shop charges you 10p, if you bring it back for recycling, you get your 10p back... This is potentially a huge business for someone who will go hunt a load of plastic bottles and sell them back haha.

    I'm pretty up for that, I mean, you get your money back as long as you recycle it, so it's a win-win!

    We are kinda forced to where I live. We have like 4 different bins - The one I hate the most is the food waste bin. Like, sure you shouldn't waste food but sometimes you just can't finish the meal but my god that bin gets nasty.

    In terms of shopping bags, I only ever get one If I really need it. Normally I would have a bag on me anyway with my work stuff in so I would just shove my items in there If I can.

    We only have 3 bins here, black bin for general stuff, green bin for recycling and lil grey bin for food.
    We're kind of forced to recycle cos the black and green bin is only collected every two weeks alternatively. So if you put everything in the black bin it'll be full long before the two weekly collection.

    Ye I recycle when I can. Annoyingly at the moment I have to sort through the recycling here as nobody seems to realise you can't just put any old crap in there.

    Yeah my family recycles whenever and however we can.
    We either reuse the plastic bags we get at the supermarket, or give the plastic bottles to my aunt who uses them for her
    air plants which she hangs in her farm, or collect a bag of cans and give it to those aunties foraging through the trash and
    at the end of the month we give the whole lot of newspapers to the karang guni man so he can sort out and sell to those
    recycling plants.

    We'll bring either our own fabric shopping bags to the supermarket or the plastic bags we get to the wet market.

    We have to recycle in my area otherwise they won't take our bins. We are also only allowed to fill up 1 black bag every 2 weeks as that's when they are collected. If we have additional black bags we have take them to a household recycling centre ourselves. I think that's pretty bad tbh, especially for those who have big families :/
