Im not sure where the best place is to discuss this...but my concerns are with excess food packaging...it drives me nuts, not to mention the logistical issues of disposal etc.
I wondered if the old system of pay per kilo would get around much of this and wondered if anyone had any thoughts!? years ago in the UK these places were called 'Fine Fare' if anyone remembers!!?
I realise its ceased existence might be simply Health & Hygiene issues but then there are alot of loose produce all over markets pic n mix areas etc.!


There are plenty of small businesses taking the recycling baton and allowing you to refill containers etc. if this was on a larger scale I can't see this being too umanageable as society has fairly successfully managed to adapt to BYO Bags in most stores. This would certainly have a massive impact on recycling bins and the need for such ridiculously big ones that can hardly fit down the narrow passageway that adjoins our house...this is by the way to avoid a £75 fine....
Anybody have any thoughts? this is where somebody with money, passion and influence aka 'a Jamie Oliveresque' can take up this cause and runaway with it all the way to No.10, thereby allowing me to nip to my local 'Fine Fare/??' next week and not have to hump a bin the size of me round my house......

Now I am feeling a little bad as two streets away they actually don't have any recycling facilities....different borough....and don't start me on that one!!
