The Petelos produce twice as much rubbish as most families, half of which comes from the youngest member of the family. They waste power and money on their dryer and Patrick spends three hours a day burning through precious petrol in a traffic gridlock.
With the help from the WA$TED! team, the Petelos will save $1250 in household bills every year and reduce their household footprint from 33 to 22 times the size of their section - a reduction of a third.
Even though Patrick only went by train two days out of five, if everyone made a reduction like him we would reduce our country's total carbon emissions by 15%.
