Background Information on Halve Waste Program
The Halve Waste program was founded by several local councils, including Albury City Council, City of Wodonga, Federation Council, and the Shires of Greater Hume and Indigo. This initiative aims to reduce waste sent to landfills by 80% by 2030, aligning with State Government targets. The program implements local solutions to achieve this goal, with all participating councils working together to reduce waste. The Halve Waste program is an important step towards a more sustainable future, and its goals are supported by the community. By reducing waste, the program helps to conserve natural resources, reduce greenhouse gas emissions, and protect the environment. The program’s success relies on the collaboration and commitment of all participating councils and the community.
