So what can we learn from this? Food waste is 43% weight of total waste. @The_10000 gave the council the solution, separate food waste collections, but they still say it is impossible.
24 London boroughs offer food waste collections to all kerbside properties. Nine boroughs do not currently offer this, including Wandsworth and Westminster. Wandsworth is now finally doing trials, after immense pressure. @CollectMyFood
So how is Wandsworth doing?
At 24% it is close to the 2008 high water mark figure but way from ideal. There is significant room for improvement, has the council as configured got the political will though?
