Those using Bristol Temple Meads will now be able to use dedicated food waste bins at the station. <\/p>\n
This will help boost recycling rates as there will be fewer items rejected due to contamination. <\/p>\n
The food waste also ensures fewer items end up at the landfill, thus reducing the amount of greenhouse gases produced. <\/p>\n
The bins can be found in the station\u2019s subway and can be easily spotted by the colourful wall design. <\/p>\n
They hope that people will use the bins not only to keep the station clean but also to increase sustainable habits. <\/p>\n
\u201cWe have installed a recycling station at Bristol Temple Meads in the passenger subway which has three designated bins to separate food waste, dry mixed recycling, and general waste.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe want to encourage passengers to keep the station clean and tidy but also provide them with the facility of segregating their waste much like they would do at home.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis initiative helps Network Rail implement best practice when it comes to sustainability, supports the station achieving a goal of removing zero waste to landfill, and complies with the Government\u2019s simpler recycling legislation.\u201d<\/p>\n
