WE ARE HE RE TO ASK YOU THE QUESTION – YWASTE ?
Covering a big part of the why for us at Ywaste…
50 MILLION

in South Africa every year.

ends up in landfill an archaic,
unsustainable and harmful solution
35%
is organic waste that rots in
landfills producing methane gas.
“Environmentally, instead of
implementing a carbon tax on
companies exploiting our natural
resources, why not incentivise
companies with a positive net
balance on their income statement?
Rewarding companies for
sustainable business practices that
become tradable commodities.”
– Emile Fourie
