#cashfortrash
Every day volunteers are cleaning our beautiful beaches of plastic waste.
We want to say thank you with a big smile. That is awesome. It will also be awesome if everybody takes the bottles back instead of littering the street, the ocean and the beach. It is time to install a cash for containers system now.
°
Bottle deposit schemes are getting real, tangible results around the world where they’re already been introduced - places like Germany, have tripled recycling rates since getting bottle deposits. This is an opportunity New Zealand can’t miss out on, especially if we want to get serious about tackling our waste crisis.

Please support the #cashfortrash, #cashforcontainers or the #KiwiBottleDrive campaign and sign the petition.
Find more from Kiwi Bottle Drive on there InfoPages.
Doing this will make us all smile.
