Andy Conder joins Tracey Lange to chat about the Cape Town recycling service, Clearer Conscience.

They started in 2008 as a recycling collections service for homes, offices and work, commercial and industrial premises.

There’s a lot of people in Cape Town that want to recycle and sadly there’s not curbside collections for everybody.

Clearer Conscience has two types of recycling services:

• Separated: glass, paper, plastics, tins (must all be in a separate bag)
• Mixed: plastics, tins, paper (same bag), glass (separate bag)

For guidelines on what to recycle, see here.

The materials are then donated to worthy causes and charities.

If we look at the Oasis Association in Kenilworth, it’s an organisation that looks after people with learning difficulties.

Once everything is sorted, it then gets sold on to the processes and the charity… they receive funds from the processors to help with running the centre.
