Rubbish Removal in Brunswick - Handy Rubbish

What are the methods of disposing of rubbish?

There are several methods of disposing of rubbish, each with its own advantages and considerations:

Landfill: Waste is buried in designated landfills. Modern landfills are engineered to minimize environmental impact, but they can still contribute to pollution if not managed properly.

Incineration: This method involves burning waste at high temperatures. Energy can sometimes be recovered from this process, but it can also release pollutants into the air if not controlled effectively.

Recycling: Materials like paper, glass, plastic, and metals are sorted, processed, and turned into new products. Recycling helps reduce the amount of waste sent to landfills and conserves resources.

Composting: Organic waste, like food scraps and yard waste, can be composted. This natural process turns organic matter into nutrient-rich soil conditioner.

Waste-to-Energy (WTE) Plants: Some facilities use waste as a fuel to generate electricity or heat. This process can reduce the volume of waste and produce energy, but careful management is needed to control emissions.

Biological Treatment: Methods like anaerobic digestion and bio-drying break down organic waste using microorganisms. These processes can produce biogas or stabilize waste for easier disposal.

Reuse and Repurposing: Items in good condition can be donated, resold, or refurbished instead of being thrown away. This reduces waste and extends the lifespan of products.

Each method has its benefits and challenges, and the most suitable method often depends on the type of waste, available infrastructure, environmental considerations, and regulations in a particular area. Many places adopt a combination of these methods to effectively manage and reduce the impact of rubbish disposal on the environment.

David Cameron met vaccines minister shortly before award of contracts to company he advises

David Cameron met vaccines minister shortly before award of contracts to company he advises

David Cameron met vaccine minister Nadhim Zahawi with representatives of a private health firm which he advises, two months before the US company won public contracts worth up to £870,000.

The meeting, uncovered by Open Democracy, is listed in official government transparency records as taking place between Mr Zahawi, Mr Cameron and Illumina on 1 March 2021 “to discuss UK genomics sequencing”.

Shortly afterwards, on 29 April, Illumina Cambridge Ltd was awarded a £697,788 Public Health England contract to supply medical equipment, pharmaceuticals, personal care products and laboratory, optical and precision equipments. A week later on 7 May, a second PHE contract worth between £34,564 and £172,824 was awarded to the company for a similar range of supplies.

Mr Cameron was appointed as an adviser with Illumina in 2018. Applying for clearance to take up the role, he told the Advisory Committee on Business Appointments that he would be paid for working two to three days a month for the company.

His role involved assisting Illumina’s engagement with foreign governments and stakeholders as the company expanded into other countries, he said, and he would also be expected “to provide strategic advice; assist with business development, particularly in an international context; and perform other duties, as reasonably requested by the Board”.

Mr Cameron informed Acoba that he would not play any role in contract negotiations between Illumina and the DHSC or Genomics England – a DHSC-owned company which he set up while he was PM in 2013.

And Acoba said he assured them that while his role might involve “some very limited contact with UK ministers from time to time”, he “would not lobby ministers or the UK government in any way on behalf of Illumina or its partners”.

The revelation of the meeting comes shortly after a parliamentary inquiry found that Mr Cameron showed “a significant lack of judgement” in his intensive lobbying of government ministers on behalf of finance firm Greensill Capital, which was seeking involvement in Treasury coronavirus support schemes in 2020.

Labour’s deputy leader Angela Rayner told Open Democracy: “David Cameron’s behaviour is evidence that the rules that are supposed to regulate lobbying are completely unfit for purpose and need a radical and urgent overhaul.

“There appears to be nobody in government who the former prime minister has not lobbied in an effort to enrich himself and his clients during this pandemic.”

A spokesperson for Illumina said: “Illumina always follows the correct and necessary process in its negotiations with customers.

“We have worked with Genomics England since 2013, when we won a competitive tender process for the £78m contract for the 100,000 Genomes Project. Our ISO-accredited facilities in Cambridge were chosen by Genomics England as being the most appropriate in the UK in terms of being able to deliver this advanced genomics programme.

“The vast majority of David Cameron’s work with Illumina is outside the UK, representing the best practices of the UK in genomics to other countries.”

The Independent has reached out to DHSC, Public Health England and Mr Cameron’s office to request comment.
