How can we produce less rubbish?
Wellington residents are throwing away more, not less, despite plans to slash the amount of waste sent to landfills by 2026.
The Wellington Regional Waste Management and Minimisation Plan (WMMP), developed in 2017, set a primary target of reducing the amount of waste sent to landfill by one third per person per year from 600 kilograms to 400kg by 2026.
However, according to a Greater Wellington Regional Council report, the amount of waste sent to landfills in the past three years has increased by 17kg, from 606kg per person per year to 623kg, as at June 30. Wellingtonians also recycled less. The amount of recycling processed in the same period decreased by 6kg per person per year to 59kg.
