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.
🪱🐦 When are you the most productive? 🌙🦉
The Post has been diving into our daily habits, and research suggests being an early bird or a night owl isn’t just a choice—it’s biology! We all have that specific time when our brains finally "click" into gear.
This raises a big question for the modern workplace. To get the best out of everyone, should employers accommodate our natural body clocks? This idea is at the heart of the four-day work week and flexible scheduling movements.
We want to hear from you:
1. When does your brain "click" into gear?
2. Would a flexible (or shortened) schedule change the way you work?

🌉🛶 Early Birds Might Crack This One First… or Not? 🥚🧠
A person is crossing a bridge and sees a boat full of people, yet there isn't a single person on board.
How is this possible?
