Millions of Brits are unsure of how to recycle correctly

Millions of Brits cannot think 'outside the box' when it comes to what to recycle - with light bulbs, crisp packets and plastic packaging causing the most confusion. A survey of 2,000 adults revealed one third don’t know what to do with empty crisp bags while one in four aren’t sure whether cardboard drinks cartons can be recycled. Ten percent admit they are unclear whether glass can be recycled and are confused over what to do with their old cardboard boxes. The study also found two thirds of us are worried about packaging and the types of materials used to wrap their favourite products.
