vote for something different in this election
Kia ora kautou. I'm reaching out to you via Neighbourly because our registered political party has been illegally and undemocratically kept out of the 2020 elections by corporate interference, such as facebook refusing to run advertisements, by Vote Compass and On The Fence refusing to put our registered political party as an option to vote for, and Policy.NZ not putting our name on their policy page. We have not been invited, and outright refused, to attend candidate meetings to share our policies with the public. As an emerging party with over 1500 members and thousands of supporters, and innovative ideas of how to improve things for New Zealanders, we've wanted to get our word out. If you're sick of the same old, same old, and don't know who to vote for this year, please check out our policies on www.outdoorsparty.co.nz... and me, Tracy Livingston, on www.outdoorsparty.co.nz... and feel free to call me. Nga mihi nui.
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.
Find out more about the scheme online.
