The challenge, which kicks off on September 1, will coincide and celebrate Zero Waste Week, from September 6-10, and National Recycle Week from September 20-26.

Already more than 1,100 Nottinghamshire residents have stepped up to the challenge.

Each challenge will show how you can help make a difference – learn how to be Bin Smart and recycle the right things, remind yourself how to reduce and reuse and understand how the 3Rs play a vital role in the fight against climate change.

Coun Neil Clarke, Nottinghamshire Council transport and environment committee chairman, said: “Joining the fight against climate change has never been more important.

"Nottinghamshire has declared a climate emergency and we need to do everything we can to tackle this and move towards carbon neutrality.

“The more we can do locally, even the small things, adds up and can reduce the impact we have.

“We are committed to improving this and hope our Go Green for September campaign will help encourage residents re-focus their minds to recycle right and improve waste and recycling habits across the county.”

There are lots of prizes to be won to keep everyone motivated throughout the challenge – visit veolia.co.uk/nottinghamshire/gogreenforseptember to get signed up.
