Palmy rubbish bags are now red!
Palmy residents will start to notice whero (red) rubbish bags hitting the shelves over the coming months. The red bags will gradually replace the existing green bags to bring them in line with the national waste minimisation brand guidelines.
So, remember:
Whero/red = para/rubbish
Karaka/orange = karaehe/recycling
Kahurangi/blue = hangarua karaehe/glass recycling
Same cost, same size, same shops- just a new colour! So, remember Palmy, whero is red for rubbish bags.

One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.
So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?
-
59.1% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
25.2% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
15.7% ... It is complicated
