Plastic Recycling

As part of my Outdoor Education this year I am studying sustainability. I have to explore an issue and take action. Since I couldn't decide between the issue of plastic going to landfill and predators endangering our native wildlife I have decided to combine my topics.

I have found channels to direct some plastic products, not normally recycled in kerbside recycling, to recycling programs. I am collecting the following items:
- Plastic toothbrushes (Please hot wash and dry these for hygiene reasons)
- Empty toothpaste tubes
- Empty dental floss containers
- Any cardboard packaging that the above items came in
- Any brand coffee pods
- Empty yoghurt pouches/suckies and caps (Please cut the bottoms open and wash and dry)
- Glad wrap (Clean and dry)
- Glad zip lock bags (Washed and dried)
- Glad storage containers (Washed and dried)

Any brand of the above is fine.

Please deliver items for recycling to 91a Freyberg Street. If no one is home items can be left in the blue recycling bin just inside our gate.

Since this recycling initiative attracts a small amount of money I will be donating this directly to Predator Free Lyall Bay and Melrose group to help buy more traps and tunnels to hopefully see Lyall Bay become predator-free and bring back the bird life such as Kereru and Kaka.
