While we can’t recycle our way to Zero Waste, we can’t get to Zero Waste without recycling. This plenary panel features speakers working to support recycling from the halls of Congress to the collection crews and the processors in between. Learn about the kinds of investment in recycling infrastructure the industry agrees we need, about the role of mission-based recycling collection businesses, and about the promise of community-based MRFs in moving us further down the road to Zero Waste.
