To those who would like to be involved, the first meeting of the proposed Northeast WasteWise Alliance is scheduled for
Wednesday 28 February at 10.30 AM
Wangaratta Library, 21 Docker St Wangaratta (just near the Anglican Cathedral)
At the November NERSA (North East Regional Sustainability Alliance) meeting, there was an agreement to form a specific waste related sub-alliance to discuss waste initiatives in more detail and to:
- Exchange ideas
- Exchange hard to recycle materials for recycling – regional bulk ups to share the load.
- Create an organised power base for advocacy and initiatives.
The proposed Agenda is as follows:-
1. Introductions
2. Ideas on developing programs
3. Possible items for exchange
4. Possible lobbying – issues, targets? (e.g. for a Bendigo-style soft plastic recycling program in the northeast?)
5. Adopting or promoting technology e.g. the “recycle mate” app?
6. Tip shop/ green shed: funding options from Sustainability Victoria?
