Some significant wins for #climate action advocates recently involving the Australian Government (bit.ly/2RvD6Fw) Shell (cnb.cx/34W1K5d) Chevron (reut.rs/3ipbsFh) and Exxon (reut.rs/3ckzWM7)
A great initiative from the @MarlDistCouncil to keep #waste out of landfill and keep household items in use for longer. Hopefully this trial leads to a permanent programme in the region and elsewhere in New Zealand. #reuse scoop.co.nz/stories/AK2106/S…
Latest @baybuzzhb article from our #waste minimisation guru Dominic Salmon talking about Hawke's Bay lead in low-carbon #transport. bit.ly/2T31z5y
