WHAT? - New EU rule BANNING garden bonfires
Yet more restrictions coming in the name of the environment.
It's now gone a few years since the British left the EU, in part because they didn't like all the restrictions and rules that they were coming up with.
Now there is a new rule.
People will be banned from starting bonfires in their garden to burn garden waste such as grass, leafs and sticks.
This is because the new law requires that food and organic waste be sorted and recycled.
Meaning that people who are tending their garden will have to either compost their garden waster or deliver it in for recycling.
In Scandinavia it is tradition in the spring where homeowners tend their garden and start bonfires to burn up garden waste, which will now be banned.
People are now paying with microchips in their hand.
You find yourself at the self scan checkout, just finishing up your run to the grocery store. As you scan the last piece of fake soy meat, you proceed to pay. Instead of grabbing your wallet, you simply hold your hand over the machine and with a ”beep” you are done.
What's next, will they ban wood stoves too? Probably sooner or later...
So what if you are grilling and want to use sticks or wood from your garden on to fire up the grill? Looks like that will be illegal now, because garden waste must be recycled.
