| Message | Our growing mountains of waste represent economic inefficiency – resources we have failed to re-use. Using systemic thinking across the entire lifecycle of products and services we can, like nature, recycle all our domestic and industrial waste. The Green Huamnist Party will therefore adopt a national Zero Waste Strategy. As a first step we will introduce a Waste Reduction, Re-Use and Recycling Bill which will legislate to reduce packaging, outlaw incineration, set standards for the recycled contents of products, and stabilise the market in recyclable materials. A Zero Waste Agency will be established to oversee resource re-use and recovery, and by 2045 we will aim to be recycling 60% of domestic waste. |

| Message | What's wrong with incineration? It's fairly useful for some things and can generate heat which can either power generators or reduce heating costs. |
