What is the National Recycling Bin Survey?
The National Recycling Bin Survey is a pioneering project that aims to tackle the issue of packaging waste in Irish households. The project is a part of the Sick of Plastic Campaign, a national campaign facilitated by VOICE Ireland and Friends of the Earth. We aim to empower communities to pressure industries and decision-makers. Therefore, we are looking for people like you, the recycle bin champions of Ireland who are sick of the amount of waste coming into their homes.
This unique project invites citizen scientists to actively contribute to the circular economy in a simple but meaningful way. The National Recycling Bin Survey will span the months of July and August, allowing participants to select a two-week timeframe that best suits them. Just recycle as normal, placing clean, loose, and dry materials into your bin.
Then on the day before collection, spill out your recycling bins and participate in the Recycle Bin Survey. The survey is designed to be straightforward and user-friendly and will be available online, ensuring easy access for all participants.
By joining forces and sharing crucial information, we can close the loop on the circular economy. Even better, by entering and completing the survey you will be in with the chance of winning one of five One4All gift vouchers. Apply today and make a difference!
