Scam or real?
I had a phone call today from number +61 285 203 880 from a lady who said that she represented a Health Organisation. She knew my first name. She continued to ask if my health was good. After that what my age was. I ask her why she needed so much personal information? She replied to help people like me. I stated I was not giving her personal information as I could here typing during our conversation. She ended the call.
I share this with you, because it is so easy to fall in a trap where personal information is used for all the wrong reasons.
Be aware, be alert, be wise. Have a great day.
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.
