In Nelson, thanks to a joint venture, the amount of construction waste ending up in landfill is being greatly reduced.

An initiative to recycle as much of the construction waste has meant that more materials are being recovered and reused throughout the community.

CEO of the Nelson Environment Centre, Anton Drazevic, speaks to Jesse.
