The festive season means a whirlwind of year-end functions and family gatherings, with all the delicious meals, celebratory drinks and gift giving that good times bring.
Of course, all this consumption generates more waste than usual. Which is why it’s so important that we keep our good recycling habits going – even when we are taking a break from everything else.
So, in the spirit of summer, our team have put together our top four tips for celebrating in sustainable style! Whether you’re hosting a year-end function, spending time in nature, or having out-of-town guests to stay, we’ve got you covered.
Leave only footprints: Our stakeholder relations manager, Junaid Francis, loves the great outdoors. He’s here with one friendly request: Wherever you go this summer, please don’t leave your empty food and beverage packaging behind.
Share the joy: Here’s a reminder from our recycling value chain analyst, Boipelo Madonsela, that recyclable packaging is the gift that keeps on giving. Watch as she explains why you should put yours out for waste pickers this holiday.
Plan the perfect party: If you’re organising a year-end function, make sure recycling is part of your planning. Tlou Sebola, our collections and training manager, shares her easy-to-implement holiday party hints that make a difference.
Be a great host: Having people to stay? Our marketing manager, Kara Rohleder, says you can make them feel at home by sharing your recycling routines with them. You might inspire them to live more sustainably!
