THE NEW FACE OF WASTE
OPPORTUNITY HIDDEN IN A LANDFILL PROBLEM
NEARLY ONE-THIRD OF WHAT Americans CURRENTLY THROW AWAY IS COMPOSTABLE ORGANIC MATERIAL.
That's where we come in. Much of the waste in the landfills is organic material that could be better used to make high-quality compost or renewable energy. To date, we’ve diverted nearly 40,000 tons of organic waste from local landfills and put organic waste to higher and better uses.
