Transition Southampton

Is it possible to live off a diet that is 100% local? Transition Southampton members Nick and Milena have decided to try and find out. Track their progress as they try to feed themselves with 100% local produce (within 30 miles) for a whole month!

If you use areosols they can now be recycled using the regular recycle bins (the ones with the blue lid!). Here are some notes from Southampton City Council's Website:

Estimates show that we each use an average of ten aerosols per year, such as deodorants, hair sprays, air fresheners and furniture polish. All of these cans can now be recycled. Aerosols put out for recycling must be empty with any loose plastic lids removed. Cans must not be pierced or squashed.

Aerosol can that can't be accepted: Aerosols containing insecticides, oven cleaners, paint and automotive sprays (often marked with a skull and cross bones or a black cross on an orange background) must not be placed in the blue lidded recycling bin. Please continue to place these in your green lidded bin.

Here's the information on Southampton City Council's Website.
