Bruce Scobie does his bit when it comes to recycling. He washes out the bottles, separates the different containers, and knows exactly which numbered cast-offs of modern consumerism can find new life in a journey starting at his bright green council recycling bin.

But last Tuesday morning the environmental message Hamilton City Council has spent years fostering felt like so much trash to Scobie when he watched shortcut-taking contractors tip his street's recyclables straight into the rubbish truck.

Recycling collector Waste Management holds the contract to collect rubbish for the Hamilton City Council and said what Scobie saw was an isolated incident.

The city council waste management and minimisation plan has a target of a 50 per cent increase in per capita kerbside recycling, A 10 per cent reduction in the per capita amount of rubbish to landfill, 25 per cent decrease in kerbside rubbish to landfill and a 10 per cent increase in the amount of material diverted from landfill.

Hi neighbours,

Chicken is a popular dish for many Kiwi families. But are you happy to pay the extra cost for free-range or organic chicken? If so, why do you fork out extra for it? Although buying free-range chicken might be an ethical choice for many, it's not necessarily any healthier than other chicken.

As part of a new Stuff series, we look at why chicken is so cheap to buy nowadays, what happens inside the barn, why chickens get so big and the use of antibiotics in chicken feed. To learn more about what happens to your chicken before you put it in your shopping trolley, click the links above.
