Recycling is one of the easiest ways we can help tackle climate change from our homes as it helps to conserve natural resources and save energy, slowing down the effects of climate change.

鈥淲e鈥檙e getting behind Wales Recycles鈥� Mighty Mission to become number one in the world for recycling. We can all play a part by recycling everything we possibly can at home 鈥� whether that鈥檚 food waste such as eggshells, fruit and vegetable peelings and teabags from the kitchen, or recycling empty shampoo and shower gel bottles from the bathroom. We鈥檝e shown we have what it takes with Wales having its best year ever for recycling, so let鈥檚 continue our mighty effort to lead Wales to number one in the world.鈥�
Wales Recycles has shared its top five tips for recycling at home this Spring:
1. Go green with your spring clean听
Empty cleaning product bottles can be recycled 鈥� from plastic bleach bottles to trigger sprays and furniture polish aerosols. Make sure they鈥檙e empty and put them into your recycling instead of throwing them away. Recycling just one cleaning spray bottle saves enough energy to charge six tablets.
2. Clear out your clutter听
Spring is traditionally a time to have a sort-out at home. Instead of throwing items away, check Wales Recycles鈥� Recycling Locator for more information on where to recycle items such as batteries, clothing and small electrical items.
3. Turn your food waste into power
If you鈥檙e cooking, put all inedible food waste such as vegetable peelings and stalks into your food waste caddy, along with eggshells and any bones leftover from meat or fish. Teabags, coffee grounds and fruit peelings can also be recycled. When food is recycled it is turned into renewable energy. One recycled banana peel can produce enough energy to charge two smartphones.
4. Boss your bathroom bottles听
Most household plastic items can be recycled including bathroom toiletries such as plastic shampoo, conditioner, hand soap and shower gel bottles. When they鈥檙e finished, give them a rinse and put them in your recycling container. It takes 75% less energy to make a plastic bottle from recycled plastic compared with using 'raw鈥� materials, so protect the planet from your bathroom by recycling.听
5. Ace your aerosols
Empty deodorant, dry shampoo and air freshener aerosols can all be recycled. Metal is infinite meaning it can be recycled again and again without losing any of its quality. Join the 73% of people in Wales who already recycle their empty aerosol cans.听
