It is a ratepayer-funded car, so some of us will probably object to the higher purchase cost of an electric vehicle at our expense (although the spending limit was not exceeded), however, the savings on running cost and the avoided emissions (which we are not yet costing properly in NZ) make this the absolutely correct decision.
Getting us underway on a just and fair transition to a sustainable, circular, low-emissions economy means taking a long-term view and investing in the right kinds of technology, not doing things on the cheap and playing the silly old keep-the-cost-down-in-the-short-term game. This is what walking the talk looks like, and I'm glad to see that some of our council members are setting a good example for all of us.

These new blue bins are one third smaller than the red bins. As I am aware we need to do alot more to reduce waste and recycle more. Why did the council not consider placing strategically bottlebanks every 5 -10 streets, and arrange to have them emptied every 2-3 weeks. I live in an area where i know that some homes use two red bins to put out their empty beer and wine bottles along with the plastic bottles containers and jars. I have a feeling that there will be alot of people going into the council in a months time saying their blue bins have developed legs and walked of with friendly people to live at their addresses in order to get new bins. I am sooo looking forward to how the district council explain this one.

There have been hardly any mistakes so far in this week’s collection and crews are finding the sorting much easier and safer. With the different materials pre-sorted they are much more valuable to recycling plants and can more easily be turned back in to new products. We aim to make our recycling system as efficient as possible, and having Blue Bins for glass is an important part of that effort.
Around 19,000 blue bins have now been delivered to central Whangarei suburbs with delivery to Bream Bay today and tomorrow, then Mangakaramea through to Kauri for the rest of the week.
Northland Waste will be leaving a sticker on bins where there is glass in the red bin or something other than glass in the blue bin. Residents will need to sort their recycling properly then place it out for collection again next week.
