Episode Details

Rotorua Lakes Councils organic waste bin rollout, initially set for July, has been indefinitely delayed due to supply chain issues stemming from the Iran war. The high-density polyethylene needed for the bins is in short supply, causing a backlash from residents concerned about overflowing bins, pests, and increased illegal dumping. Despite mixed results from similar setups in other cities, the council remains committed to finding alternative suppliers and timelines to achieve their goal of diverting six thousand tonnes of waste from landfills annually.
