The new recycling centre at Whitemoor Yard is a beacon of green hope in an increasingly polluted world.
Rail companies like Network Rail must continue to protect the environment by ensuring programmes like this are automatically implemented, rather than treated as a special occasion.
Reusing and recycling 95% of waste created by construction and maintenance may seem like a high statistic. Yet that 5% still means our world is becoming that much less clean each year. And that’s just one company in one sector.
Other operators who do not currently participate in any recycling schemes need to consider the effects of their work, and maybe get a little inspiration from the Whitemoor centre.
The environment should be treated with respect, especially by those whose livelihood is, unfortunately, constantly degrading it.
