Multipurpose bins(recycling + general waste)replace current public bins.

What the petition asks
Bins should be able for use in public areas that have two holes/compartments for general waste and recycling instead of the current ‘one hole’ bins around London.
Up to 80% of rubbish put into general waste could be recycled in the UK and 9/10 people would recycle more if it was easier. These statistics show that having these new bins will lead to people making a change.
