COLLECTING: NESCAFÉ® Dolce Gusto® capsules to recycle
Hello Neighbours,
Do you have a NESCAFÉ® Dolce Gusto® machine?
As part of my 2020 project initiative, I am collecting as many NESCAFÉ® Dolce Gusto® capsules as I can to get them recycled through TerraCycle.
The capsules will be melted into hard plastic and remoulded into new recycled items.
This will help reduce landfill and better yet, help to raise funds for my preferred charity - St Johns New Zealand.
If you would like to participate, all you have to do is save your capsules for me (please make sure they are dry). Simple as that!!!
You are welcome to drop off your capsules at;
Momo Teppan-Yaki Restaurant
15 Wharf Street, Tauranga 3110
Lunch and Dinner Hours, except Mondays.
I intend to set up Collection Bins in a few weeks at places such as outside supermarkets, retirement villages etc for people who cannot get into the city.
As I am working full-time, my time may be limited so if you would like to help with collection, that will be much appreciated also.
I will be happy to pick up if you have collected many in your area so we can all work together.
I would hope we can come together as a community to collect as many NESCAFÉ® Dolce Gusto® capsules as we possibly can. This will be an ongoing effort so please feel free to participate anytime you would like or simply spread the word so more people can join in!
St Johns New Zealand is a charitable organisation with, in my opinion, their frontline Ambulance Staff as a pivotal role in all of our lives. They are one of many people working crazy hours and tirelessly to save many lives out on the roads or wherever they are needed in our beautiful country. I have been fortunate enough that neither myself nor my immediate family have needed their precious assistance but are grateful for all the work that they do for others and for us, should we need it one day in the far future.
I hope you can help me support St Johns New Zealand.
Otherwise, you are more than welcome to sign up with TerraCycle yourself, nominate your preferred charity and start collecting for this great cause. The more we recycle, the more we are doing our little bit to help our planet and future generations to get more out of their environment.
Thank you very much for taking the time to read this post! :)
Poll: 🤖 What skills do you think give a CV the ultimate edge in a robot-filled workplace?
The Reserve Bank has shared some pretty blunt advice: there’s no such thing as a “safe” job anymore 🛟😑
Robots are stepping into repetitive roles in factories, plants and warehouses. AI is taking care of the admin tasks that once filled many mid-level office jobs.
We want to know: As the world evolves, what skills do you think give a CV the ultimate edge in a robot-filled workplace?
