Alun Davies: Minister for Natural Resources and Food, Wales

摘要

Your highlight of 2013: Progress towards zero waste in Wales; we exceeded our 52 percent recycling target and are leading the way in the UK, thanks to hard work from householders and local authorities. In Gwynedd, Prosiect GwyriAD came on-line, an AD facility able to generate enough electricity to power around 700 homes. Your lowlight of 2013: Despite good progress, a recent WRAP report estimates around 210000 tonnes of food that could have been eaten is wasted in Wales each year. The biggest impact in 2013: Frank O'Connor, who is stepping down as Director of Ecodesign Centre Wales. He founded the centre, which won the 2013 World Green Design Contribution award.
