Repak's recycling knowledge audit shows a clear disconnect between what people believe they know about recycling and their actual practices, with an average score of 64%.
Zoe Kavanagh emphasized, "While many believe they're doing the right thing, a national average score of 64pc shows that we are not where we need to be in recycling efficiency."
The survey revealed significant gaps in public recycling knowledge; while 88pc felt they were doing well, only 53pc correctly identified recyclable items.
Only 29pc of respondents knew how to recycle bleach bottles correctly, indicating a widespread misunderstanding that hampers effective recycling efforts in Ireland.
