Top DJ Neil Fox lends support to new Recycle for London campaign

The Mayor of London, Boris Johnson, today launched a major new recycling campaign urging people to recycle even more. This will help local authorities to save taxpayers' money and build on the £30 million Londoners saved last year by opting to recycle rather than reaching for the rubbish bin.

It currently costs 25 per cent more to get rid of rubbish in your black bin than to recycle it and it is clear costs are going to increase further as we are hit with a double whammy of landfill sites filling up and landfill taxes coming into force. The Mayor is keen to help Londoners avoid these increases and save money by highlighting that if we doubled our recycling efforts we could save up to £320m by 2015.
