Two of South Africa’s most pressing needs, namely the need for sustainable, low cost housing and the need to divert recyclable materials away from our overflowing landfill sites, have found an unlikely common solution in recycled expanded polystyrene (EPS). 

You can't get high on hemp, but you can create clothing, housing, food, fuel, natural plastics and other locally useful and globally marketable consumer products out of it. And oh yeah, did we mention jobs, and lots of them. Hemp is already a multi $ billion a year industry and growing.

During the month of June, Trudon (Publishers of the Yellow Pages) is distributing 1 500 trees to the fortunate residents of Braamfischerville, Gauteng, as part of an ongoing effort to green townships. In conjunction with South Africa's premier social greening social enterprise, Food & Trees for Africa (FTFA), Trudon has generously sponsored 10 000 trees for distribution in low cost housing settlements across South Africa as part of their ongoing commitment to social upliftment and poverty alleviation.
