Tonnes. The revised Local Development Plan will play a vital role in meeting these obligations. It will emphasise the important role ▇▇▇▇▇ has to play in contributing to reducing carbon emissions and the need for resilience in respect of the impacts associated with climate change. The plan will promote the efficient use of land for development encouraging the use of ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ sites and where appropriate increasing densities. Sustainable design principles in relation to the siting and orientation of developments, increasing energy efficiency and sourcing materials locally will help to reduce emissions. The Scottish Government’s publications Designing Places and Designing Streets will be implemented to promote cycling and walking and reduce car dominant road layouts and require developers to provide a minimum quantity of open space in new developments for amenity, sport, food growth, flood alleviation and wildlife habitats. Supplementary planning guidance has been prepared for wind energy developments and the revised local plan will promote community scale projects across all renewable technologies. 70,000 50% Landfilled tonnage (t) 45% 60,000 50,000 40% 35% Total BMW landfilled (t) 40,000 30% 25% 30,000 Recycled tonnage (composted & recycled) (t) Tonnage waste collected (t) 20,000 20% 15% 10% 10,000 BMW landfill allowance (t) 0 5% 0% Recycling Rate (%) 2005/06 2006/07 2007/08 2008/09 2009/10 2010/11 With regard to waste, the following targets have been set for local authorities: each subsequent year [45]. 1. 50% recycling/composting by 2013 2. 60% recycling/composting by 2020 3. 70% recycling/composting by weight and carbon metric by 2025 The graph shows that the amount of waste being collected in Moray has risen over the last 6yrs.
