significant commitments to reduce waste. With these businesses’ leadership,
we aim to reduce the amount of waste going to the landfill, increase reuse and
recycling of existing resources, and increase purchasing of recycled and
environmentally preferable products. Together, we are moving this community
Toward Zero Waste! For more details about how your business can participate,
