Zero Waste New Zealand Trust is a charitable organisation and has dedicated its effort towards 'zero waste and sustainable New Zealand' for nearly 10 years, funded mainly by The Tindall Foundation. Zero Waste New Zealand Limited is a waste minimisation consultancy which was established in 2005 as a charitable company to financially support the Zero Waste Trust. Since its establishment we have influenced and encouraged many people in New Zealand and overseas to think of rubbish as a resource, and on actions that lead to a sustainable society.
