Is recycled always better for the climate than new? Jeff Vickers speaks to RNZ
LCANZ member and Technical Director for thinkstep-anz Jeff Vickers recently joined RNZ’s Jesse Mulligan to talk about the real environmental costs and benefits of manufacturing from recycled materials, and the importance of keeping higher value materials in the local market to make our economy more circular.
The interview built on a recent article published by Stuff which unpacks recycling and recycled products, and the importance of considering the full life cycle to make informed decisions.
