We are thrilled to host Andrew Doig from the Australian Sustainable Business Group, who brings a wealth of knowledge on waste services and legislative review. Andrew guides us through the labyrinth of waste management and landfill approval, focusing on the pressing issues in New South Wales. From the Lucas Heights extension to the Woodlawn mine approval, we dissect the challenges of expanding waste facilities amid the pervasive NIMBY (Not In My Back Yard) mentality. Learn the crucial differences between putrescible and non-putrescible waste and grasp why Sydney's landfill capacity is on a ticking clock set to expire by 2028.
Andrew also sheds light on the future of waste management in New South Wales. We explore viable solutions such as regional landfills and rail transport, stressing the urgent need for innovative strategies and government intervention. Wrapping up, we briefly touch on the promising frontier of energy-to-waste technologies, hinting at more riveting discussions to come. Don't miss out on this episode packed with expert insights and potential solutions for a sustainable future.
