Global alliance of organics recycling associations call for immediate action at COP26

• Global alliance of organics recycling associations call for immediate action on food and garden waste recycling at COP26;
• The recycling of unavoidable organic wastes will help put the brakes on greenhouse gas emissions;
• Alliance includes associations from the UK, US, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Ireland and Europe.

A global alliance of organics recycling associations is calling for world leaders to make COP26 a turning point in history for the recycling of food and garden waste.

The alliance says that every country, business and person can help mitigate climate change by recycling their unavoidable food and garden waste into fertilisers and soil improvers, and that action needs be taken immediately to get the maximum benefits from these valuable resources. This can be achieved by recycling them through garden, on-site or large-scale systems to create valuable carbon-rich organic matter for return to our soils for carbon storage, biodiversity, water conservation and food security. The alliance call for action to be taken now to implement systems to recycle organic waste back to soils.
