Hi, I'm concerned that this article which I am currently contributing to relies too heavily on primary sources. Would anyone be able to recommend me some more reliable independent sources? Thank you Isabel.miriam ( talk) 00:15, 17 December 2021 (UTC)
There is scope for adding some content into this article about the sometimes controversial policy of local councils to remove rubbish bins from parks, beaches and other public places, and the interaction with littering behaviour and rubbish management costs. Here are a few possible sources: [1], [2], [3], [4], [5], [6], [7], [8], [9], [10]. Marshelec ( talk) 03:54, 22 December 2021 (UTC)
The constitution of incorporated societies is usually available via the Register of Incorporated Societies at: https://is-register.companiesoffice.govt.nz/ However, for some reason, the access is time-limited, so you can't get a permanent deep link directly to the constitution. I have downloaded a copy of the latest version filed in the register and stored it here for easy reference: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1oZ_TkWCAcXWrlqwO22kAN-1nCvpFPi6B/view?usp=sharing It might be worth including a part extract or summary of the objectives from the constitution. There is a permanent link to their NZBN here: https://www.nzbn.govt.nz/mynzbn/search/9429042656173/ Not ideal, but I have used a citation to NZBN in the past for access to the constitution of incorporated societies or charitable trusts.

This source quotes the 2019 Litter Audit, and describes the contribution of major fast food brands to litter problems: [11]. Here is another reference: [12]. This could be a useful addition to the article. I will try to find more on this topic. Marshelec ( talk) 06:28, 22 December 2021 (UTC)
This fairly recent report from Department of Conservation notes littering behaviour by visitors to the conservation estate: [13]

Freedom camping has been controversial in some parts of the country, with complaints including littering behaviour. Here are a few sources that mention this topic, including a Government discussion document and a report from the Treasury: [14], [15], [16], [17], [18], [19], [20]

A further topic that could be included in the article is the impact of litter on the environment. Visual impacts are obvious, and these relate to the "Keep New Zealand Beautiful" theme. However, there are other serious environmental impacts from litter. I will keep searching for more sources, but here are some initial possibilities:
General references: [21], [22], [23]
Litter as danger to wildlife on land: [24]
Litter as danger to wildlife in waterways and the ocean: [25], [26], [27], [28], plus this educational resource: [29]
A closely related topic is: Litter from facemasks : [30], [31].
