🌱The Northern Rivers is rich in businesses doing business for good and @summerland_cu is one of them. Gold level in the NSW Sustainability Advantage program and recent winner of the Tweed Shire Council Sustainability Award are couple of their notable recognised achievements. What makes them so good? A culture of integrity, innovation and earth care. For them sustainability is not a side issue, it's what they do. This values driven approach to business has them undertaking a host of really amazing actions. We highly recommend you check them out for yourselves, you will also find some handy resources for business there too. Some of the practical waste avoidance actions that we loved are ♻️Video conferencing ♻️Zero paper mortgages ♻️Monthly Board papers via ipads. They have a circular loop for the plastic cards issued by their own business, and cards from others. Working with a community social enterprise the cards are then repurposed into guitar plectrums and donated. Striving towards zero waste, they also review and improve waste management on a regular basis. Having undertaken an organisational wide review a couple of years ago, they are now participating in the Bintrim program looking for ways to be even better! #wastewarriorsforbusiness #wastewisebusinessmart #loveyourwork

Nice work guys!🤩 @byronbaycoffeecompany have now introduced their 5kg tins with a one-way-valve and pouring lip to their local cafes. These tins will save 5,000 bags going to landfill per year! Traditional coffee bags cannot be recycled due to being a composite product, so this is a great circular solution. ♻️ Byron Bay Coffee Company are also 100% solar powered, except for the gas required for roasting. They are stoked to implement this waste wise, business smart solution to lighten the local footprint, not only for their business but along the supply chain to their customers! 💚 @byronbaycoffeecompany @northernriversfood . . . #wastewisebusinesssmart #wastewisebusiness

A massive 75% reduction in single use coffee cups....say what?! Meet the team from @kiosklennoxbeach 👋 These awesome Waste Warriors really jumped on board a reusable cup initiative pulled together by some absolute legends of the Lennox Head community. By providing their customers coffee in the community donated reusable cups, @kiosklennoxbeach has reduced their packaging costs down from $500 to between $150-200 per month. These extra savings have allowed them to reward staff with some social activities and their customers are loving it as well! Reusable baskets and cups rather than bamboo plates and cups means that they are emptying bins a whole lot less too! Well done legends! 🌱💚♻️🌏#wastewarriorsforbusiness #wastewisebusinesssmart @ballinashirecouncil
