NLWA - North London Waste Authority
Waste disposal and recycling initiatives for the seven north London boroughs
Barnet, Camden, Enfield, Hackney, Haringey, Islington, Waltham Forest
Waste Facts
-
Almost 1 million tonnes of rubbish is produced in North London every year (enough to fill 8 football stadiums top to bottom)
-
By 2020 we will be generating up to 44% more per year (that's another 4 football stadiums!)
-
Throwing away rubbish is expensive - by 2011 the tax alone for sending waste to landfill will be £48 per tonne - around 8 times the cost to landfill a tonne of waste in 1996.
