Why is Merton collecting food waste?

We are making changes to the way your food waste is collected so that you can recycle more and we can process it in a more environmentally friendly way. Around 20% of the waste in an average bin (by weight) is food waste. When food rots in a landfill site it generates methane, a greenhouse gas that is over 20 times more powerful than carbon dioxide.
