A new look at recycling
Between 01 June 2008 and 06 June 2008, in Truro
Recycling Week at BBC Radio Cornwall was led by Zak Stanley's Agents4Change Student Household Challenge, where a house full of young people was encouraged to reduce the amount of waste they send to landfill.
This was launched on the breakfast show on Monday 2nd June and followed up over the week, both on air and online. The students cut down their rubbish from 3 bin bags to just half a bag.
The campaign included a 50-minute studio discussion on the BBC Radio Cornwall lunchtime phone-in programme with a Waste Management Officer.
The students also held a three-day workshop at the Royal Cornwall Show in the BBC marquee, encouraging more students to reduce waste and recycle more. Gail Porter was interviewed on the Tuesday of the campaign, and successfully managed to persuade the cynical presenter who currently doesn’t recycle to mend his ways. Read more at
