Thomas Campbell :-- any info on closing down the discussion on this subject due to " Word -- Count Limit " ? Is this something new, as noted that some "conversations" about very little seem to dribble on for weeks ? As this subject is dear to many hearts (pro or con) it could possibly be deemed to be either a personal choice, or maybe a tenet of "Northern Outlook" .. ?? Either reason, let's try not to block a stream with a Hoover dam ! Having said that, I do like "Word -- Count Limit" … may try it on the missus …. hahaha !
Say goodbye to tyre waste
About 40% of the 6.5 million tyres Kiwis use every year are recycled, repurposed, or used as tyre-derived fuel. But the rest end up in landfills, stockpiled or dumped.
The good news is now there’s an easy solution to all that tyre waste. It’s called Tyrewise and is New Zealand’s first national tyre recycling scheme.
Tyrewise ensures that tyres in Aotearoa New Zealand are recycled or repurposed properly, saving millions from going to the landfill.
