Helping Us
You Helping Youself

Sustainability is a lifestyle that we should all adopt to help protect our planet and its resources. By living sustainably, we can help reduce our impact on the environment and preserve it for future generations.

Our mission is to promote this lifestyle and protect what we love and who we love. We believe that sustainability is the key to a bright future for our planet, and we hope that you will join us in this movement.

Sustainable Lifestyles

Sustainable lifestyles are becoming more popular as people become more aware of the environmental impact of their daily choices. From the food we eat to the way we get around, there are many ways to make our lifestyles more sustainable.

Reduce

Reducing waste in the first place by saying no to unnecessary single–use items, making sound purchase decisions, and avoiding materials that cannot be recycled. For example, refusing plastic straws, avoiding takeaways containers, or enjoy dine-in are good practices to reduce waste.

Reuse

Reusing items that can be reused like spray bottles, using reusable takeaway containers, using reusable bottle waters, using containers for storing food, purchasing bulk food without unnecessary packaging, or taking your own container to the supermarket. Save money and make your own biscuits and crackers, sauces, yogurt or cream cheese, and compost your food scraps at home and work.

Recycle

Recycle waste material properly by following the rules of our local recycling system, so that, all materials are of a clean and adequate quality allowing them to be recycled and re-used inside the country, rather than having to be sent overseas.

Board Members

As of right now, there are four board members at NZSIT. They have a wealth of experience and knowledge and they are all dedicated to ensuring that the sustainable initiatives to succeed.
