BigGreen, a waste management company based in England, believes that as more and more landfill sites continue to hit crisis points, new recycling laws are needed in Britain to provide greener waste management solutions, such as for food waste and scraps, most of which currently wind up in landfills.
A BigGreen spokesperson, Mark Hall, said that “It’s a well-known statistic that British homes throw out 7 million tons of food every year.” He added that “companies in the U.K. do exactly the same—another 7 million tons, and that is nothing but a national embarrassment.”
