Should people be charged for how much trash they throw away?

More than 30 councils are fitting microchips to wheelie bins ahead of possible 'pay as you throw' schemes. It is the latest attempt to encourage more recycling to curb the amount of rubbish that ends up in landfill. Household rubbish would be weighed to within 500 grams on collection trucks and the chips used to identify which property the bin belongs to. Councils are expecting to get the go-ahead from the government to start using the chips to charge residents.
