As I was travelling in to work this morning I saw the binmen emptying the green bins and started to think about the truth of what they were doing.
I came to the conclusion that only one of the following suppositions must be true:
1...The binmen always use the same lorries whether they're emptying green bins or the normal black bins and are thus in contravention of the various laws and guidelines dealing with the prevention of the spread of foot and mouth disease in cattle because they are not ensuring that recyclable green waste does not come into contact with normal household waste containing food leftovers and organic waste.
2...The binmen use the same lorries but fumigate them fortnightly.
3...They use different lorries and thus have two separate fleets.
Whichever observation is correct, I don't understand how any of this can be helping to protect the environment.
