COMMUNITY OUTREACH AND EDUCATION 

Your key to improving waste reduction and diversion rates 

 

RAISED AWARENESS = INCREASED PARTICIPATION

Diversion program experts point to, “creativity, flexibility and a strong education campaign” as requirements for successful initiatives.*

Even with increased diversion rates, a lack of community education results in contamination that undermines progress and stalls impact.*

Cities leading in zero waste initiatives site providing educational resources to their community as integral to lowering waste generation and increasing diversion rates.**
