Waste affects everyone and we each have the potential to choose our own impact, but sometimes the ability and enthusiasm to make positive changes comes down to personal awareness and education.
It doesn't matter if you know a little or a lot. Talking more about waste - around the dinner table, at a sports match, in the school yard or with your work colleagues - can make a difference to what you do and what others are doing.

Why selling and shopping on the trail will help you to reduce your waste.
When you drop your plastic bottles, glass jars, newspapers and cans into your recycling bin or take old clothes to a charity shop, you know you are diverting all that waste from landfill.
