UK Recycling Impact Calculator
Why Use the Recycling Impact Calculator?
See the estimated carbon impact of recycling common household, electrical and construction materials in the UK. Choose a material and enter its weight to calculate the estimated CO₂e benefit — or additional impact — using published WRAP CarbonWARM2 data.
The results are estimates rather than a personal carbon footprint, as the environmental impact can vary depending on the material and recycling route used.
