EVERY autumn thousands of Greater Manchester gardeners dump a total of 40,000 tonnes of garden waste in their household bins.
This garden waste costs ratepayers over £1 million in additional and unnecessary landfill costs.
Now the Greater Manchester Waste Disposal Authority is launching the "It's a Sin to Bin" campaign aimed at encouraging gardeners to separate their green waste.
