WMO 1-8 - How do NCC intend to prevent and minimise waste without the ability to recycle or reuse within the county? Reductions in CO2 emissions from collections/distribution of waste can only be achieved by recycling glass, especially flat glass within Norfolk using a trainline for transportation. You cannot have self sufficiency whilst export waste from Norfolk, landfill is not the answer, this exacerbates the need for areas to fill and emissions that will inevitably be caused by transport to those sites. Recycling glass fulfills WSO8 in generating employment; a clean green industry with potential of hundreds of jobs.
