About this listen

Australian councils are issuing warning letters to residents who place incorrect items in recycling bins, with surveillance cameras on garbage trucks monitoring bin contents in real-time. Common recycling mistakes include putting kitty litter in food waste bins, greasy pizza boxes in recycling, and soft plastics like bags in standard recycling bins. Podcasters Tony and Ryan discuss their personal experiences with council warnings and the need for better public education on proper waste sorting.
