Tunas Reduces Waste to Landfill During Exchange

Tunas Hijau members, from Surabaya, Indonesia stayed in Perth for 8 days during the Doing More With Less Sustainability Roadshow in Mandurah. They visited the Alcoa Wormfarm and Composting Facility, monitored their waste in the accommodation they were staying in, ensuring they were recycling and putting all food waste in the wormfarm. As part of their monitoring they sorted all the recycling and learnt about what could be and what could not be recycled in the Town of Mosman Park. They used reusable shopping bags provided to reduce the number of bags they took home after each shopping trip. They stopped approx 4 kilos of food waste going to landfill by using the wormfarm provided.
