Making the big difference
Halve Waste and the 3 bin system have been working really well in our communities.
We’re wrapped to be sharing our handy tips, but it’s you guys, the community getting behind it that is making the big difference.
In every household, business, school, backyard or front yard, you’re taking the time to reduce, re-use and recycle which means you’re taking time to look after what’s important, our environment, our communities and our future.
So let’s keep it up, keep doing good together.
1. Knowing what goes into each of your 3 bins is very important. Sorting your waste properly and flattening large items will make the most of your bin space.
2. Mulching is great for the garden, make the most of autumn leaves or compost and reuse on garden beds.
3. Australians currently use over 4 billion plastic bags at the checkout every year. Making a change is simple; next time you shop just say ‘no thanks’ and use your own reusable bags.
4. Containers can be reused to grow seeds or cuttings in and are terrific for school craft projects.
