Recycling
In Sweden, there are laws that regulate waste sorting. They exist to protect people and the environment and to conserve energy and natural resources.
When you sort your trash, you take care of hazardous substances safely and materials can be recycled into new products. That means that no matter where you live, you have to sort your trash and throw it away in different places.
The waste that is most often sorted is food waste, combustibles, plastic, glass, metal, paper packaging and newspapers. Click here for more information about this:
