UK plastic for “recycling” dumped and burned in Turkey – BBC News
A BBC investigation has found that plastic waste from Britain that’s supposed to be recycled in Turkey is instead being dumped there with some of it burned.
The UK exports more waste plastic to Turkey than to any other country. Environmentalists say Turkey can’t even recycle its own waste and should not be importing more.

The US said it has hit “dozens” of Iranian military targets in overnight attacks, in response to Iran hitting commercial ships in the Strait of Hormuz.
The military said it struck “air-defense systems, coastal radar sites, missile and drone capabilities, and small boats”, using aircraft, ships, and drones – including “one-way attack sea drones for the first time”.
“The Strait of Hormuz is a vital maritime corridor for global trade,” the US military said. “Iran does not control it”.
In response, Iran said it targeted US bases in Jordan, Bahrain, and Kuwait and also radar systems in Oman.

President Donald Trump has said the US is reinstating a naval blockade of Iranian ports and will impose a 20% charge on all cargo shipped through the Strait of Hormuz following days of escalating strikes between the two countries.
He said this would stop “Iran’s ships or customers” from entering or leaving the key oil shipping route, but “all other countries will have fair and open use of the Strait”.
Iran’s foreign minister later said whoever provides safe passage “should be compensated for this service”, but Iran would remain the strait’s “GUARDIAN” – using Trump’s word.
Tehran and Washington clashed over the strait’s control after exchanging strikes in the region overnight and on Monday.
The US said it carried out strikes against military targets in Iran, targeting air defence systems, coastal radars, and missile and drone sites. Iran said it responded by striking US military bases in Kuwait, Jordan and Bahrain, and radars in Oman.

Explosions have been heard near two Iranian port cities, Bandar Abbas and Bushehr, state media has reported.
It comes after another night of strikes between the US and Iran, with Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps saying it hit two UAE tankers in the Strait of Hormuz and targeted US facilities in Jordan and Bahrain.
The UAE called the attack “brazen”, adding that an Indian crew member was killed and eight others were injured.
Meanwhile, the US military says it completed strikes on targets aimed at degrading “Iran’s ability to attack commercial shipping” – Iranian state media reports three people were killed.

The US military said it was carrying out a new wave of strikes on targets in Iran. It said the aim of the attacks was to degrade Iran’s ability to attack shipping in the strait of Hormuz. It came ass the US Navy resumed its blockade of Iran’s ports.
Iran said that control of the strait of Hormuz was required for its national security and it will exercise sovereignty over the key shipping lane, whatever the cost.
President Trump announced that he was scrapping a plan he had announced a day earlier, for placing a 20% toll or tariff on all cargos passing through the strait of Hormuz.

we need to stop or drasticly reduce plastic production, we can do without plastic, we managed ok without it year,s ago, just about everything we buy in supermarkets is either in plastic bottles or wrapped in plastic, such as turnip, bananas, etc etc etc, some of which have their own skin protection, theres no need to wrap everything in plastic, they should use paper bags for fruit & veg etc, like we used to, also bring back glass bottles, for milk, lemonade & beer etc, with a deposit on lemonade bottles, we had better ideas year,s ago than we have now, & in a time when there was no climate change either.

We recycle thinking we are doing good for the world – gets dumped and burnt in Turkey. The public are powerless, it's the government, the supermarkets and the recycling companies that are to blame, they need to be monitored and laws need to be changed. Why isn't plastic being recycled here in the uk? Why aren't scientists giving us an alternative to plastic and why aren't they on the supermarket shelves by now? I feel like I've been hearing about plastic my whole life yet there doesn't seem to be any other options and so supermarkets continue to sell everything in plastic.. It's a hopeless never ending problem. To think Brit smokers are fined £80 for dropping a cigarette butt on a UK street, even if it had been chucked In the bin, it would probably end up in Turkey

This is atrocious! How DARE our government lie to us that this is 'recycling'!! I'm disgusted these poor people just had this dumped on them with the instruction of "Just get rid of it". Recycling was BRITAIN'S job, and our government didn't do it. They took the "Out of sight, out of mind" route, rather than thinking all these materials should be remade into new items and sold back to the people.

The UK plastic waste rate is one of the highest in the world. Among the 20 nations with the highest total plastic waste production, the UK is second to the United States per capita, followed by South Korea and Germany, according to the Sea Education Association. Shame on you UK.

This whole narrative is misleading since it looks like Turkey is misconducting when it's actually bad, unsustainable policies in the UK that creates this pervasive situation. Millions of pounds are paid every year by the UK to get rid it's own trash (not "sending" or "exporting" like the journalist states) instead of investing in better recycling facilities like in Sweden (https://www.blueoceanstrategy.com/blog/trash-treasure-sweden-recycling-revolution/ ) where they even generate profit out of their trash. The UK have all the resources to do better it's just a matter of politics.

A lot of that packaging shouldn't even have been put in the recycling to begin with, they make it clear on them they are not recyclable. So we have stupid consumers putting the wrong waste in the recycling bin, then lazy/greedy waste management companies dumping it in other countries. Surely the companies in the UK that have sorted this waste should then send it back to the councils and say, this isn't recyclable, you sort it out, and they then either send to landfill or incinerate (which is what would have happened if the stupid consumer hadn't put in the right bin to begin with).

Could anyone spot that none of the plastic burnt in lands was recyclable? It is obvious people did not carefully separate the plastics in the first place. Later in the video, plastic bottles were already joined in the recycling process. I think we better think about buying products in plastic less.
