Pop Up Fashion Exchange and Waste Reduction

Pop Up Fashion Exchange and Waste Reduction

Concerned about how much waste is sent to landfill and need a few tips to help you live with less waste? Do you ever get confused by what goes in what bin? How does recycling really work in WA and what happens to our waste?

Join the City of Cockburn’s Waste Educators to have all your waste questions answered and myths busted! Learn about all the initiatives, workshops, and rebates available to help you generate less waste!

Our Waste Education Stall at Coogee Live will focus on 2 very important waste streams:

  • Food / Organics Waste:

Do you want to reduce food/organics waste going to landfill, compost like a pro and make your own fertilizer? But unsure which system to start and where to start? Our Waste education will be here to help with that!

  • Textile Waste:

Did you know: Australia is the second largest consumer of new textile in the world! That’s an average of 27kg per person per year!!!

There is so much we can already do to significantly decrease the amount of textile we send to landfill..

Join our Pop-Up Fashion exchange at Coogee Live! It’s simple: All you need to do is bring along ONE quality item of clothing (clean/no stains/holes/damages/broken zips..), you don’t wear anymore (any style or season) and exchange it for items you will wear again and again!
