Stating the obvious

[Guest Wolfeymole]

Today I got a leaflet through my door from local council regarding recycling waste.

 

Hi, no matter where you live in Calderdale, we collect cans and old clothes as part of your fortnightly kerbside collection. So now you can add these to the paper and glass you already put in your recycling box or bag.

 

What happens to your old cans?

Put your clean dry cans in the box or bag provided.

Once they're at our recycling centre the steel is separated from the aluminium using a machine with a huge magnet (well I never would have guessed).

The cans are then melted down and made into anything from trains to planes or even back into cans again.

 

...and the old clothes?

The winter clothes are sent to cold countries, summer clothes to warm countries (brilliant logic there).

Anything that can't be worn again is shredded to make rags for garages or filling for car seats.

Nothing goes to waste.

 

Thanks for your support.

 

So the next time you buy a new Jaguar just remember that your getting ripped off.

A new Jag. I wish. At least I have the car seat fillings. Anyone care to donate some more parts until I get them all? :p
