We are big polluters...

Over a third of residents in St Albans have two or more cars, 56% of us travel to work by car or van and, thanks to our love of gas guzzlers, we came second in a WWF survey of the most environmentally disastrous towns in the UK.

...and keen recyclers

Our current target for recycling is 60%.

Ways to recycle

use bins, bags and boxes
join St Albans Reuse (previously St Albans Freecycle)
get money for old clothes at Oxfam
say 'no' to plastic bags
become a bookcrosser
