"Overview: Organic waste makes up around half of what Queenslanders throw away each week in their kerbside waste (red lid) bin. Diverting organic material from landfill presents numerous environmental andeconomic benefits, ranging from significant landfill methane emissions reduction to the generation of avalue-added product.In 2022 the Queensland Organics Strategy 2022-2032 (Organics Strategy) was published to provide apolicy framework for improved management of organic materials along supply and consumption flows,outlining priority actions for the next decade. Within this framework, the Queensland Organics ActionPlan 2022-2032 (Action Plan) establishes how the Strategy's goals will be achieved. The Action Plan provides a roadmap for reducing organic waste generation, minimising organic waste impact on the environment and communities, transitioning to a circular economy, and building economic opportunities." -- from page 1.
