Have your say on the Government’s ‘TRANSFORMIN Have your say on the Government’s ‘TRANSFORMING RECYCLING’ proposals! Te kimi whakaaro mō te panoni i te hangarua! Closes 22 May Too much rubbish is ending up in landfills and our environment adding to climate change, harming our waterways and oceans, and losing valuable resources and business opportunities. There are 3 proposals: 1. Intro a beverage container return scheme (CRS) by 2025 (when you buy a drink you pay a deposit that you get back when you return the empty container. This is expected to lift container return rates to 85% or more. In a CRS, beverage producers pay the costs of collecting, transporting and processing the containers – part of 'product stewardship'). 2. Standardise kerbside recycling collections across Aotearoa NZ and start collecting food scraps (by 2030 at the latest). 3. Require all businesses to separate their food scraps from their general waste (by 2030 at the latest). MAKE A SUBMISSION 📝 Head to the @environmentgovtnz website - make a quick submission on any or all of the proposals or a detailed submission. HELPFUL RESOURCES 💥 Check out handy resources prepared by zero waste experts to help see where the thinking is at and maybe take some ideas for your submission. Here’s a couple of examples, amongst others: http://therubbishtrip.co.nz/be-a-tirading-kiwi/resources-to-have-your-say-on-govt-proposal-transforming-recycling/ @therubbishtrip https://zerowaste.co.nz/action-for-a-container-return-scheme/ @zero_waste_network Aotearoa Image: Make a Submission on the Government’s ‘Transforming Recycling’ proposals. Image credit: Track Zero We only recycle and compost about 1/3rd of the materials we place out on the kerbside and 2/3rds go to landfills. This is reversed in high-performing countries where they recycle 2/3rds and landfill only 1/3rd. This is a big opportunity to do better!
