A significant part of individual health and wellness is maintaining a healthy environment. Recycling, re-using and reduction are ways to ensure natural resources are not depleted for future generations. Christine McCoy from DC department of Public Works will lead a discussion focused on what is/is not recycling, D.C.'s Zero Waste Plan, the importance of source reduction and re-use, composting and anerobic digestion, D.C.'s organic diversion program for food waste drop off, commercial food waste regulations and residential food waste curbside pilot program.
