My goodness! The poor British Public are supposedly in danger of being overworked, stressed, and presumably oppressed by the EU's extra work burden involved for them to comply with the proposed additional Biowaste Food Waste Collections. There is no mention of the fact that additional collections would actually provide additional good quality feedstock material for Anaerobic Digestion Plants and thus spur on further adoption of AD and greatly benefit renewable energy production from waste.
The following is the short item:
EU considers proposals which could force more bin collections on householders
The EU is considering proposals which could force thousands of extra bin collections on British householders, council leaders will warn. The European Commission recently unveiled a series of ideas for reducing the carbon emissions that are created from people’s leftover food and garden waste. These include measures which would force new targets on councils for collecting so called ‘bio-waste’ and result in extra bin collections for thousands of householders.

For the specific proposal on separate collection obligations, see point 5.5.3 on p16.

What do you think about these proposals? Is the waste management industry in danger of asking too much of the public?

These bio-waste management methods can generate good alternative to energy and if one could tap the potential, it can help us to a great extent.
