Poll: Pushing our plastic problem offshore is wrong
Hi,
We all try to do our best with recycling, especially when it comes to plastics. But there's been a lot of comments recently about the damage that's being done in Malaysia and Indonesia by imported plastics just being dumped or burned.
Porirua City Council exports all plastic recycling to Malaysia and Indonesia. We recycle cardboard, aluminium and glass in NZ.
I don't want to be responsible for ruining lives and ecosystems in another country so I am asking our local MP, Chris Faafoi, what plans the government has to recycle our plastic in our country.
What do you think?
-
2.3% It's OK to send it offshore 'cos it's the cheapest option
-
97.7% NZ should take a lead and build our own plastics recycling capability
