Ammanford firm pooh-poohs (sorry!) Green pessimists

 NappiCycle is developing "an innovative solution for a better future for our children". 

The concept for NappiCycle started back in 2009, to provide a low impact, cost-efficient nappy and absorbent hygiene products recycling facility in Wales, aimed at servicing the requirements of both the local authorities as well as the business community at large.

The company signed up Cardiff City Council as a client in 2021. One trusts that other local authorities will follow the Welsh capital's lead.

(Swansea City has had its own nappy service scheme for many years and my local  council, Neath Port Talbot CBC, started a nappy and absorbent hygiene products collection service last August. My party colleague, Cllr Helen Ceri Clarke, had campaigned on the issue under the previous administration and it is good to see that the coalition has recognised what has been a problem for many young families. While easing the pressure on the latter, it is not clear how "green" these schemes are.)
