Reducing waste at Croome and across the region
Posted by volresource on October 21, 2008
Some positive developments over the last day or so:
A successful TT Drinks in Malvern on 20th October brought together almost 20 people, without much in the way of publicity, to chat about transition issues and come up with a few thoughts to take further. See Transition Malvern Hills site.
It’s reported (Worcester News) that a farmer in the Malvern Hills District, at Croome Farm, has got planning permission to turn large quantities of locally-sourced green waste into compost for his own use.
And for bigger overall impact, hopefully, one of six “zero waste places” across England announced today is the West Midlands region. “The West Midlands will create a Zero Waste Region, focussing on businesses and organisation that produce a large quantity of waste, identifying region-wide waste infrastructure needs, improving co-operation and cutting business waste right across the region. ” News release.
