Reducing Our Household Rubbish: The Zero Waste Approach

Are you concerned about the environment, but feel overwhelmed by the enormity of the problem?

Come along to hear The Rubbish Trip's popular presentation about zero waste living and be inspired to become part of the solution.

Hannah and Liam, the two No Waste Nomads behind The Rubbish Trip are back in Dunedin and Otago Museum is thrilled to be hosting their popular, flagship presentation all about zero waste living! For those of you who missed out on last year’s talk, now is your opportunity to come along and learn about how you can do your bit!

This two hour seminar is an introduction to the zero waste philosophy and how to implement it in your life. Drawing on their own research and over four years of experience living zero waste, Hannah and Liam will guide you through the whys and the hows of life without a rubbish bin, including:

- Tips for how you can reduce the rubbish in your life (including fun DIY household products, cosmetics, and other life hacks).

- What is the zero waste movement? Why is waste reduction important?

- How zero waste principles can revolutionise your perspectives on living and lifestyle, beyond your rubbish bin.

- Innovative examples of waste minimisation policy, practice and thinking from around the globe, and how these might inform community-level waste reduction.

This event is free; everyone is welcome.
