Phasing Out Problem Plastics and Implementing the Waste Disposal Levy Expansion
To reduce the increasing amount of rubbish ending up in New Zealand’s landfills, the New Zealand Government is to fund new recycling infrastructure and expand the national waste levy scheme. This will help reduce climate pollution and make New Zealand more resilient to volatile global markets post-Covid as there will be more New Zealand-based recycling capacity. Waste currently represents about 5 per cent of all New Zealand’s greenhouse gas emissions. Reducing waste will therefore contribute to reducing our emissions.
This 124 million NZD investment is part of the broader COVID-19 Response and Recovery Fund.
