The Lock Down
ISN'T THIS LOCKDOWN GREAT
I remember that time I woke up in the morning and thought
What shall I do
I had breakfast and thought
what shall I do
I sat down in the lounge and though
what shall I do
I looked out the window and thought
what shall I do
I walked out side and thought
what shall I do
I sat down and thought
what shall I do
I walked around the house and thought
what shall I do
I went inside and thought
what shall I do
I sat down in the lounge and though
what shall I do
I did some calculations
Saying 4 weeks seems such a long time

That's
40320 minutes
That's
2419200 seconds
And that's
2419200 000 000 000 nanoseconds
"ARRRRRRRRR PLEASE SOMEONE MAKE IT STOP"
"Anyways how's your day going?"
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.
