And buy recycled
For example, look for products such as stationery, refuse sacks and toilet tissue that include recycled paper. By buying products that contain recycled materials we support the market for the items we collect for recycling.
States Works Horticultural Service can supply a soil conditioner produced from garden waste from Guernsey’s public gardens – Tel: 246263 for more information on costs and delivery.
You’re the consumer and your custom is very important to local traders. Ask local shops and supermarkets if they sell products with recycled content such as bin bags, stationery, Christmas cards, tissue and kitchen roll, and if not, why not?
