This is the first in a series of webinars about organic and food waste, and how these are managed within the waste hierarchy. The purpose of the webinar series is to provide real world application of the waste hierarchy in action. Each session will focus on increasing the understanding of what that level means in reality when dealing with organic and food waste, how actions taken at each level contribute and why they are important.
The waste hierarchy is a framework prioritising strategies from most preferred (prevention) to least preferred (disposal) options for waste management. Efforts made at the top of the hierarchy avoid the extraction of valuable resources, keep valuable resources in use and prevent valuable resources from going to landfill.
Our first webinar focuses on organic and food waste initiatives at Level 1 - Reduce, Rethink, Redesign. As the most preferred option in the waste hierarchy this level focuses on actions to reduce the resources being used and redesigning to avoid producing the waste in the first place.
Join us in this session to hear from three different experts on how actions to Reduce, Rethink or Redesign make a difference in tackling food and organic waste in New Zealand.
- Reduce - Sophie Wolland, Love Food, Hate Waste
- Rethink - Paul Murray, Para Kore
- Redesign - Kaitlin Dawson, Food Waste Champions
