Air pollution is one of the biggest threats facing human health, and has a significant impact on our communities, wildlife and our natural environments. Working with many of our Local Authority partners, we're helping to reduce emissions from our recycling, waste management and street cleansing operations - improving air quality for local residents. Some highlights from collaborative projects include: Working in partnership with Brent Council, we have rolled out nine electric collection and street cleansing vehicles. These cleaner, greener and quieter vehicles are supporting Brent Council on the road towards its 2030 carbon neutral goal. In consultation with residents living in the area, we are working with Haringey Council to introduce new electric equipment, including barrows used for street cleansing, and a cage tipper used to collect bags of waste from flats above shops. Last year, we worked with Kingston Council to begin the roll out of 27 new electric waste collection vehicles. As well as reducing emissions, the new vehicles are also helping to improve recycling rates as they are dedicated to single material collections. Across our range of electrification initiatives, we are helping to improve air quality for the communities we serve 🌳 #CleanAirDay #Electrification #ElectricVehicles #EcologicalTransformation

We might not see it or think about it but #waste and #landfills have become a major concern for environmentalist, governments and alike. These landfills cause #environmental damage, increase #carbonemissions, force extra use of land, disrupt #wildlife habitats, and cause #millions to operate. While landfills might keep the city clean, the only viable method to solve this waste problem is developing a #circulareconomy, recycling and reusing waste materials thus minimizing landfills, carbon emissions and protecting our wildlife and natural resources. #climateaction #climatecrisis #climatechange

Los Angeles multifamily buildings are set to receive an unexpected new green initiative. The city council voted 11 to 0 in favor of establishing the LA Organic Composting Incentive Program. This program aims to help freestanding restaurants and multifamily housing units recycle and dispose of organic waste. This program will be mandatory for many of the multifamily housing units in Los Angeles. It follows a California law enacted two years ago that requires food waste to be kept out of landfills. With food waste making up 20% of landfill trash, this is a significant effort. The challenge will be ensuring tenants comply and that the organic waste is handled properly without causing issues in multifamily housing units. How do you see this playing out? Impactful or unnecessary to force this on operators? #Sustainability #OrganicWaste #Composting #LAHousing #EnvironmentalImpact

When the solution is not provided, a new alternative is followed. Waste follows the path of least resistance and the result is always at the expense of our nature, and our planet. True waste management comes from a working ecosystem where regulations, infrastructure, financing, technology … all work together. Impressive work by Sungai Watch

What do you see when you drive around Southampton? Unfortunately, it's often fly-tipping. From bin bags outside houses to mattresses dumped in country lanes, it's a growing problem. When you encounter this, what's your reaction? Many express disgust, claiming they'd never do such a thing. But are we all truly aware of what defines fly-tipping? Did you know that - even leaning a bin bag against a full bin is classified as fly-tipping?! Some staggering facts: 🚯 In England, 3,000 instances of fly-tipping are reported daily. That's one every 30 seconds! 🚯 Reports of fly-tipping have increased by 13% in the last 4 years. 🚯 Shockingly, nearly half of UK adults admit to fly-tipping by leaving bags of rubbish beside full bins. 🚯 1 in 5 Brits say that they either regularly or frequently do this. At our garden clearances, we've unearthed some unusual items. Recently it was on old, rusty bike buried in overgrown bushes. We understand busy lives leave little time for waste disposal, but we all have a duty to do so responsibly. It's essential for the environment, public health, regulations, and global sustainability. If you need help finding registered waste management services, drop me a DM. Let's tackle this together.

The true value of basic resources often eludes us until they become scarce. Urban development without water management strategies is inherently unsustainable. There's no single solution to this complex issue; it demands a comprehensive approach encompassing fair pricing, water balancing, waste water treatment, recycling and recharging, rainwater harvesting, aquifer preservation, safeguarding recharge zones, community involvement in conservation, and collective responsibility for stewardship. #smartwatermanagement #Sustainability #WastewaterTreatment #RainwaterHarvesting #CommunityEngagement #Stewardship
