Irish celebrity chef Donal Skehan has teamed up with the MyWaste campaign to encourage people across Ireland to reconsider their binning habits and make a difference in recycling and food waste.
Celebrity chef Donal Skehan is urging people across Ireland to 'take a minute' before deciding which bin they use to throw things away and make a 'real difference' to recycling and food waste . Together, we generated 3.17m tonnes of waste in 2021 - up from 2.7m in 2016 - with just 41 per cent recycled. But by next year, we need to be recycling 55 per cent of our waste and 60 per cent by 2030.
He said: "Food waste is a global issue, but it's one we can all tackle – whether at home, at work or at play. By taking a moment to think before we bin, we can make a real difference. I'm thrilled to partner with MyWaste on this important campaign and inspire positive change across the nation." "When we put food waste or recyclable items such as yogurt pots, pasta bags or an empty milk carton into the general waste bin, we are losing valuable resources. The paper and plastic could have been recycled into new products and the food waste composted to nourish soil. Every time you sort your waste correctly, it is a step towards a more sustainable future."
Conor Walsh of the Irish Waste Management Association added: "We welcome this new campaign which will encourage improved waste segregation across the country. This is an opportunity to retain more of our valuable resources within the Irish economy and contribute to Ireland’s transition to a circular economy."
