A recent YouGov survey shows: <strong>For consumers, waste separation is one of the most sensible contributions to climate and resource protection.<\/strong> Compared to other measures, it is most frequently integrated into everyday life. However, incorrectly disposed waste in the yellow bin or yellow bag still makes it difficult to recycle valuable raw materials.
