Join the upcoming Living Smart course to meet other local people, learn new skills and make lasting changes in your life.
This course is interactive and practical, with skilled facilitators and inspirational guest speakers. You will delve into how to live simply, with topics on waste, energy, transport, water, gardening for biodiversity, gardening for food, healthy you, healthy home and community. There is also a field trip on a weekend day.
Taiwan is a world leader in recycling.
Only 1% of its waste goes to landfill. The concept of 'producer responsibility' obliges industries to pay into a recycling fund to deal with the rubbish they create. Citizens pay to discard rubbish as they must buy a official rubbish bag and deliver it to the garbage truck.
How did they do it? The Taiwanese people insisted and made it happen.
