What’s the right way to store and dispose of household chemicals?

The NSW Environment Protection Authority (EPA) delivers two programs that address household problem waste, targeted at NSW householders: Community Recycling Centres (CRC) and Household Chemical CleanOut (HCC). The programs aim to provide a safe way to dispose of problem wastes to improve resource recovery and minimise harm to the environment and human health. Renuka talks to Mani Ramasamy, (Bilingual Energy Assessor-Tamil, Ethnic Communities Council of NSW) about these programs.
