A SUNRISE CENTER GREEN SALON Presentation
Save Money by Streamlining Your Recycling and Using Zero Waste Strategies

with Tania Levy and Portia Sinnott

Want to live more lightly, consuming less and recycling, composting and reusing more?
Interested in learning how to maintain a good quality of life while reducing your carbon footprint?
Curious about how our local cities and counties are leading the nation toward Zero Waste?

By reducing the volume and toxicity of what you bring home, you can prevent pounds and pounds of production waste and greenhouse gas emissions, and, at the same time, help reduce our dependence on expensive landfilling and foreign oil. The key is simple straightforward systems that are not a burden to your household or business. Come hear two experienced waste reduction and recycling experts tell how they and other people are working toward Zero Waste or darn close - at home, work and play.
