One rubbish bag in six months!
Wellingtonians Ralph and Ali Hogan set out to recycle as much as they could and see how much actual rubbish they had to put out for collection. In six months they managed to collect one bag – the rest of the rubbish went into the recycle bin and the kitchen scraps went into a community compost pile.

Wellingtonians Ralph and Ali Hogan set out to recycle as much as they could and see how much actual rubbish they had to put out for collection. In six months they managed to collect one bag – the rest of the rubbish went into the recycle bin and the kitchen scraps went into a community compost pile.
As Ralph says:
One bag of rubbish in six months - $1.87
Saving the planet - priceless!
