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.
