Canberra’s FOGO recycling program, meant to slash landfill food waste and emissions, is now on track for 2030 after multiple delays—blamed on a stalled contract for its new processing facility. While the pilot in five suburbs has been a success, critics say the delay undermines climate action, especially since similar programs run elsewhere. Residents are eager for expansion, arguing that diverting organic waste from landfills cuts decades of greenhouse gas emissions. With a two-stage procurement process underway, officials hope lessons from the pilot will accelerate rollout—and by 2030, every Canberran could be part of the solution.
