BBC Radio Wales - Beyond Recycling

Wales is ranked third in the world for recycling. Carys Eleri asks how we can do better.

Wales is currently ranked third in the world for its recycling. Carys Eleri asks what Wales can do to go beyond this success, looking for next steps with the biggest impact.

Writer and actress Carys Eleri asks what Wales can do to take us beyond our recycling success.

Wales is currently ranked 3rd best in the world for recycling, with the rest of the UK lagging far behind us. Whilst Carys celebrates that, she also considers what else we might do to further cement our place in the world as a Nation who really cares for our planet.

Carys joins conversations with individuals who are on a personal mission to create less waste; to the owner of a zero waste shop, to a company who collect and pass on household items for re-use, to a student using litter as a means of self-discovery, and to an advocate who believes community action must be at the heart of all green initiatives in Wales.

Along the way, you’ll hear about the ways in which Carys has made her own product use more sustainable, and what else she might try after speaking to others with a similar mission.

Let Carys show you how you can change your behaviours to make less of an impact on our delicate planet, and how your efforts as an individual might pay off.
