11 total sponsorsTabled

Motion Text

That this House congratulates South Western Railway on achieving zero waste to landfill since 2018; recognises the hard work of people on the ground sorting individual bins to achieve this milestone, from train presentation teams to waste segregation officers, who have helped show how corporations can achieve sustainability; welcomes SWR’s recent video, The Journey of a Coffee Cup, launched to coincide with World Environment Day 2025, a display of the rail company’s effective waste management practices; notes that SWR recycles more than any other train operating company in the UK; and encourages the new government transport provider to follow its example in embedding sustainability throughout their operations when more railways become nationalised.
