Explore and understand all aspects of the circular economy, from design to recovery. Hear from our special guest Future Post, Abilities and (one more to be announced) who are creating a thriving circular economy in Aotearoa.

The circular economy is an alternative to throw-away thinking and our ‘make-use-dispose’ economic model. In a circular economy waste has been designed out of the system, no excess is produced and all resources are recovered. A circular economy is restorative and regenerative by design and recognises the intrinsic value of all living things and the ecosystems that sustain life. It creates strong, resilient and equitable communities where people have what they need to live happy and fulfilling lives.

Through our Circular Economy events we are building connections between all parts of the supply, use and recovery chain. Join us to learn, share and connect with others on this journey.

All are welcome!
Limit spaces.
Please RSVP by emailing isy@zerowaste.co.nz

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.

This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
Do you think NZ should follow suit? Vote in our poll and share your thoughts below.
