ELIMINATING THE IDEA OF WASTE®

Recycle and raise money for nature

TerraCycle Glad Colgate Include New Zealand Nescafe Dolce Gusto #fonterra The Collective
Transcript: TerraCycle is a recycling company that deals with hard-to-recycle waste such as toothbrushes, coffee capsules, and even cigarette butts and chewing gum! World Environment Day 2017 is coming up on Monday June 5, and in line with this year’s theme With Nature, TerraCycle is calling on New Zealanders to recycle and raise money for nature. In New Zealand we offer a number of free programs that allow you to recycle ‘non-recyclable’ packaging and products. From oral care waste and yoghurt pouches to coffee capsules and soft plastic food storage products, our programs deal with items that many don’t realise are in fact recyclable. These programs are sponsored by brands such as GLAD, Colgate, The Collective, Nescafe Dolce Gusto, Fonterra and more, which means you can recycle these products for free. Anyone can sign up to TerraCycle, whether you’re a household, office, school or clean-up organisation. Our recycling programs also give back to the community through a cool points scheme. You receive two points – which is converted to two cents - for each piece of waste sent in to TerraCycle, which can be donated to your chosen not-for-profit or school. This World Environment Day we’re encouraging you to start thinking about how your donation can make an impact on protecting the environment. Clean-up groups, environment and wildlife protection associations, food waste-minimisation initiatives and more, are all organisations worth considering for World Environment Day.
