Recycling

You can make a difference

We inhabit one of the world’s most diverse regions, with an abundance of natural beauty worth preserving.

 

Recycling is one way you can act to make a difference.

Recycling MYTHBUSTERS

Are you ready for some recycling myths to get busted out of landfill.

Did you know that more than 50%* of what our region is throwing in their red bins is recyclable

 

*NE Waste Composition Audit.

By recycling just 6 aluminium cans you can save enough energy to offset the carbon emissions from a 10km journey in an average sized car, 17km bus ride or 25km train trip.

The items that go into our yellow-lidded recycling bin at home include glass bottles and jars, plastic containers and drink bottles, milk and juice cartons, paper and magazines, steel and aluminium cans, and even aerosol cans.
