RECYCLING in
FICHARDT PARK
From the earliest times men created
garbage. Civilisation became synonymous
with the refuse heaps. Garbage is a reality
wherever people are dwelling. The garbage,
though, is more than an assault to the senses.
Burning garbage release toxic gasses which
pollute the environment and atmosphere. Re-
fuse is a growing problem, but there is hope if you and I start to engage and become involved in recycling….(Mieliestronk website)
Sustainability can be achieved by taking small
steps in the right direction. The objective of
the FNA is to reduce household refuse and to
ensure that the street pickers leave the area
quicker. This will result in a safer and neater
neighbourhood.
Research by Shawn Burn showed that personal contact with individuals has the most effective results to encourage recycling in suburbs.
We need your help to persuade residents!
