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.

While kiwi families are biting the bullet & cutting costs, truckloads of kiwifruit seconds are being transported out of our district to our big supermarket chains where it is onsold. According to info received from a local fruit reseller, Zespri/Packhouses, oblivious to the cost of living crisis (yet expect the taxpayer to bail them out after a weather event), will no longer supply our local small fruit re-sellers & will only sell to the big price gougers. If that wasn't bad enough, according to this fruit reseller, truck loads of kiwifruit are being used as cattle feed. Now I wonder what appetite this govt has for knocking this kind of monopolistic behaviour on the head! Perhaps it might suggest to the industry, if it wants taxpayers' money to bail them out, it might need to rethink its local market fruit distribution policy?
