In Britain, as well as across Europe, dealing responsibly with our waste is becoming increasingly important. Old ‘solutions’ such as landfill have been proven to be extremely harmful to the environment, human beings and wildlife. Consider this extract from a Greenpeace article:

"Planet Earth is 4,600 million years old. If we condense this inconceivable time span into an understandable concept, we can liken the Earth to a person of 46 years of age. Nothing is known about the first 7 years of this it's life, and whilst only scattered information exists about the middle 35 years, we know that only at the age of 42 did the earth begin to flower. Dinosaurs and the great reptiles did not appear until one year ago, when the planet was 45. Mammals arrived 8 months ago; in the middle of last week, human like apes evolved into ape like humans, and at the weekend the last ice age enveloped the Earth. Modern humans have been around for 4 hours. During the last hour we discovered agriculture. The industrial revolution began 1 minute ago. During those sixty seconds of biological time, humans have made a rubbish tip of Paradise." (From 'Against all odds' – Greenpeace 1989)

Reducing, reusing and recycling our waste should be priorities for all of us. However, some waste simply can’t be recycled and this is known as residual waste. The best solution for this residual waste, and for waste wood, is to produce clean energy from it.

MVV Environment can provide long-term solutions to the management of the UK’s waste and waste wood, in a sustainable and efficient manner for the benefit of waste disposal authorities, local communities and the conservation of natural ressources.
