Some of the stuff is going overseas, isn't it?
OK, can we move on then to the waste bin?
So the black sacks.
Yeah, exactly.
But that doesn't mean that we want to see more of this type of waste.
I mean, the aim is always, isn't it, to get down that waste that will have to go into processes like that.
Is all of the food waste being used for that?
OK, this is a listener question, and I think you've answered this in part, but I want to put it to you anyway.
What percentage of material is recycled and what percentage goes to landfill?
Is that a percentage of all waste?
And is the ambition to get the landfill percentage of, did you say 13%?
A general question, is black plastic like that in flower pots recyclable?
Chris Packets, though, is there a move to change those from a manufacturing point of view, so that they are fully recyclable?
Okay, well that's coming for us.
And Conor, thank you so much for telling us about that.
Conor Walsh, Secretary of the Irish Waste Management Association, joining us again.
And we will talk to you again soon.
It's very interesting and it's good to know or have the details around where does that stuff go once it's collected from outside of your house.
Yes, Clare, there's quite a lot of issues.
If you're looking at what not to put in your bins at home, the two reasons, I suppose, one is health and safety, which is a very big one, and the other is recycling.
