Below is a copy of a letter I have sent to the supermarkets. You are free to copy it, add your name to it and send it off. Please ensure when you have drafted the letter that the lionks stillwork as the UKDN Forum software tends to shorten links, so quickly test them before you send your letter.
Dear Sir/Madam,
I am writing to you as I want to bring to your attention the contamination of farm land in this country by so called “green" waste. 1000s of tons of “green” waste are being spread on to the land daily, this waste is not being filtered as it should be; it contains a vast amount of plastic, glass, aluminium and other toxic rubbish, it will affect the whole population and future generations as it enters the food chain. This needs stopping NOW before our countryside becomes a huge landfill site. As a major supermarket I am hoping you will investigate and I am sure you will not want this waste being picked up with the food you have packaged on your behalf.

Here is a link to an e-petition that has been started http://epetitions.direct.gov.uk/petitions/30392
There is also a NCMD (National Council for Metal Detecting) article at the link below

To quote the RSPCA, who receive over 7000 phone calls per year, ”With many pet and farm owners going direct to vets, and many injured wild animals never being found, it is estimated that this figure is just the tip of the iceberg".
Most farmers are unaware that the "Green" compost they are spreading on their land from Local Council/Private run recycling composters is full of contamination. We have been told some farmers can no longer plough the fields and have even had to have the veterinary out after animals ate the waste.
Thanking you for taking the time to read this letter, and lets hope together we can reverse this problem before it is to late.
Yours sincerely
Brian Cross
