In a circular economy, local waste management services will need to be transformed to emphasize overall waste reduction and facilitate reuse while more efficiently collecting, sorting, and recycling what’s left. This program will explore how zero waste municipalities can reduce waste and maximize diversion of waste from landfills and waste-to-energy facilities for reuse and recycling.
