The Community Zero Waste Roadmap

ON THE ROAD TO ZERO WASTE

When it comes to waste, our choice is simple: Every day we get either closer to or further from a Zero Waste future. We can choose to sustainably use our limited resources, so we can support future generations. We can choose to reduce our climate impact and build resilient communities. We can choose to invest in green jobs and
our local economy. Or, we can continue to throw away our “trash” and with it all these opportunities for positive change. That is the essence of the journey and the choices we have to make.

We’re here to help you choose Zero Waste and get moving on that journey, whether you’re ready to move an inch or a mile. As a citizen, business owner, student, government official or public staff member, if you believe in the goal of Zero Waste, you can become the Zero Waste Champion in your community.

We created this Community Zero Waste Roadmap as a guidebook for Zero Waste champions like you.
