It's estimated that construction and demolition waste make up to 50% of all landfill waste in Aotearoa. On average building one new home will create 4 tonnes of waste. This is waste on a grand scale, waste of resources, waste of materials, waste of energy.
There are a lot of organisations in the Waikato that are re-thinking their approach to waste in a way that is better for business, better for our environment and better for the community.
Along with industry experts, join us for a kōrero on the value of waste and simple things we can all do to start reducing it.
