WI on the Warpath

The WI have been asking this government to reduce the plastics that is used in packaging of food, and the effect it is having on the landfill sites - we know that plastic does not break down for at least a hundred years, so why have they not introduced legislation to stop this.
 
Composting this is another issue which is being abused, like putting in carpets, large amount of cardboard and rags, why oh why do not people read the booklets that are sent out by councils?
 
This leads to nasty smells, which invade peoples homes, and cause me to have headaches from complaints of residents, please only put in to the GREEN bin food waste and garden waste.
