About


The Waste Aware Business (WAB) blog is part of the environmental campaign of the same name and aims to encourage businesses to reduce, reuse and recycle. We focus on Scotland but welcome visitors from all over the UK, and wider, if they find our services useful.

Funded by the Scottish Government, Waste Aware Business tries to increase awareness of waste related issues to business throughout Scotland. We provide advice about reducing, reusing and recycling business waste via our website:

www.wasteawarebusiness.org.uk

The blog is intended to complement the main WAB website and serve as a more informal forum for discussing topical issues.
