ZWZ included in NRA Recycling Brochure!

Wow - how thrilling for the National Restaurant Association to include the Zero Waste Zones and Sustainable Food Court Initiative in their RECYCLING FOR ALL THE RIGHT RETURNS brochure!  In the brochure, nine tips are given for effective recycling in restaurants.  Here is tip #9:

TAKE ACTION BY JOINING A LOCAL RECYCLING INITIATIVE.  Sometimes the best way to enhance your recycling efforts is to join forces with other local businesses.  Atlanta's Zero Waste Zones (www.elementalimpact.org/zwz-join) and Sustainable Food Court Initiative programs are good examples of this.

Georgia Pacific teamed with the NRA on an impressive recycling survey of foodservice operators and consumers.  View the ZWZ Blog post, Recycling for all the Right Returns, for details on the survey and its announcement at the 2011 NRA Show.

Thank you Chris Moyer, NRA Conserve Program Director, for including ZWZ | SFCI as examples of organizations to join.
