The UK is currently required to meet an existing EU target of recycling a minimum of 50% (by weight) of its household waste by 2020. Recycling rates have increased markedly since 2000 but concerns have been raised in recent years that household recycling rates have started to plateau.
Wales is the only nation within the UK to have already met the 50% requirement, reporting a household recycling rate of 64% in 2016/17. England, Scotland and Northern Ireland all have household recycling rates between 44-46%. In 2016, the UK as a whole reported a household recycling rate of 44.6%.
