Zero waste is based on the concept that wasting resources is inefficient and that efficient use of our natural resources is what we should work to achieve. It requires that we maximize our existing recycling and reuse efforts, while ensuring that products are designed for the environment and have the potential to be repaired, reused, or recycled. (Source: CIWMB) Think of it as “resource management,” not “waste management.”

When it comes to zero waste, you make it happen.
