NLWA - North London Waste Authority
Waste disposal and recycling initiatives for the seven north London boroughs
Barnet, Camden, Enfield, Hackney, Haringey, Islington, Waltham Forest
Chair's Welcome
The NLWA is looking for a new, 21st century solution to managing waste in the area.
We believe that a new approach that prioritises waste prevention, reuse, recycling and recovery over current disposal methods will enable us to manage our waste in the most affordable and environmentally friendly way we can.
This approach will not only help us reduce north London's carbon footprint but will enable us to offer residents the best possible solution for managing waste into the future.
Cllr Clyde Loakes - Chair of the NLWA
Our Aims
The North London Joint Waste Strategy sets out how the NLWA, in partnership with the seven constituent boroughs, is going to manage waste up until 2020.
Over coming years our aim for north London is to achieve:
-
A 50% recycling and composting rate by 2020, and
-
A significant reduction in the amount of waste sent to landfill to 35% (of 1995 amounts) by 2020
