Carmarthenshire household glass collection confirmed during council climate debate

GLASS will be collected from the kerbside outside peoples homes next year, a senior Carmarthenshire councillor has said. Cllr Hazel Evans, executive board member for environment, confirmed the new kerbside service for 2022 during a tetchy climate change debate. Councillors unanimously declared a climate emergency in February 2019, with the aim of becoming a net zero authority by 2030. Labour councillor John James said he did speak at the scrutiny meeting cited by Cllr Campbell, and that local Government couldnt afford to put climate change on the back-burner. Labour councillor Kevin Madge said the attacks on Cllr James were unacceptable, while his colleague, Cllr Ken Lloyd, wanted to know why agricultural pollution was not part of the debate.
