Sir, - Bottle banks have become tip-heads in many locations throughout the country. It's great to see the increased levels of glass recycling, though as soon as the banks are full, people seem very willing to dump bottles in close proximity.
This behaviour is partly caused by the lack of anywhere to put your plastic bag after dropping your bottles. This simple addition of a bag collector would not solve this problem, but would surely help. I hope the recyclers don't bottle it. - Yours, etc.,
