The Norfolk Wave Recycling Centre (Managed by Revolve Your World)
In a world-first, The Norfolk Wave Recycling Centre combines proven and innovative technologies under one roof, creating a circular economy template for other island nations and small communities to adopt. As we move away from a linear economy model whereby resources are created, used, then disposed of, we find ourselves more aligned to the circular miekduu (resourceful) mindset of our ancestors. By reusing what we have in innovative ways and taking stock of our collective habits as a community, we will play an active role in ensuring a sustainable future for our letl salan (children).
We ask yorli (you all)to join this Norfolk Wave, because the success of this recycling system will rely on the collective effort of all who visit our shores or call Norfolk home. Help us start a wave that ripples across to our Pacific cousins and beyond!
