Plastic Recycling 101

Plastic lids deposited at KNH by community members are regulalry collected by the Ecological Justice Hub in Brunswick for recycling. 

This workshop is a chance to find out exactly what happens to those lids. In this hands-on 2 hour workshop, you will learn:

• How to sort and clean plastic milk bottle lids ready for recycling (sounds boring but it's an essential first step!) 

• How to shred the cleaned and sorted plastic lids ready for melting.

• How community action can avoid plastics getting into the environment and about the various different types of plastic.

• How different types of products can be made from your plastic lids - small plant pots, plastic sheets and even carabiners.
