Southland Community Wastebusters Trust

The Southland Community Wastebusters Trust was formed in 1999 and has over fifteen volunteers who work towards the common goal of reducing waste in Southland.  The Trust produces a weekly column - Busting Waste - in the Southland Newspaper that informs readers how to reduce their waste, what can be recycled and tips on how to be sustainable.
