Harringay, Haringey - So Good they Spelt it Twice!
Bi-Weekly bin collections coming to Harringay
With bi weekly rubbish collections coming our way this summer, Liberal Democrat politicians in parts of the borough where it's already operating have been making it known that they strongly oppose fortnightly waste collections and have called for an urgent review of the changes to the service.
But the Labour-led council says it has no plans to review the bin collections and claim that most people in the borough have responded positively to the changes.
The move, which is expected to save the council £900,000 per year, aims to encourage more people to recycle. Garden and food waste is still collected weekly.
The changes, which include replacing small green recycling boxes with large wheelie bins, were introduced to the west of the borough at the beginning of March.

Hey Lucy, on the CO2 point... Incineration might be benficial, without lots of complex analysis you stop methane being produced in landfills (21 x more potent as a greenhouse gas than CO2) and the energy geneated displaces other possible energy generation forms (the UK grid average is gas produced electricity).
If you had said it creates possible mecury, PCB, dust and other possible noxtious contaminants I would be with you.
