Since 1996, Planet Ark has been helping Australians recycle by sharing knowledge, education, events and inspiring stories.
Over the past 29 odd years, the recycling rate in Australia has gone from 7% and just 1.5 million total tonnes recycled to over 60% and 43 million tonnes of materials recycled. Per person, that’s recycling just 80kg of material yearly in 1996, to now about 1,700kg!
