In the absence of any sensible food waste collection service in Wellington, Kaicycle opened its doors with an affordable, eco-friendly (they pick up using push bikes), enterprise that is about to be squashed by WCC when it starts it’s own (presumably contracted out) food waste collection service. Maybe our councils should become more clever at analysing, monitoring, evaluating and supporting existing local initiatives that are delivering intelligent services that deliver multiple benefits. I’m supportive of the work councils do, but I’m not supportive of Godzilla’s foot coming down on the heads of those creating worthwhile change.

Another way for the govt to decrease service and cost.s, its even in a dysfunctional health system whereby govt in denial is already badly in breach of social contract..
