Many businesses put all their recyclable packaging into the bin where it goes to landfill. Bins overflowing with cardboard and polystyrene are a hazard for pedestrians and show a complete disregard for the environment.
Do you think that councils should do more to enforce businesses to recycle properly? Are fines suitable for repeat offenders?

Businesses should have a recycle bin system. Households have them so should businesses. I am sure councils can organise a better system around these issues so it is easier for businesses to do the right thing in the first place. People only don't do it because it is too diffcult.

I think it is high time that councils enforce recycle strictly because enough damage has been done to the planet already. It should be strictly followed like traffic rules. High fines for repeat offenders is one way to do it.
