40% of the items in the recycling bins cannot be recycled due to contamination by food and drink remnants, tissues, reusables and trash, putting everyone's good effort to waste.
Given our current rate of waste disposal, Semakau Landfill is expected to be full by 2035. The earlier we respect our recycling bins and not treat them as general trash bins, the more likely we can collectively improve our recycling rates and reduce the waste incinerated and sent to Semakau Landfill.
