Eco-Cycle Zero Waste Community & Business Awards Luncheon 2008

A big thanks to all our community partners who attended this year's awards luncheon. Eco-Cycle honored the many volunteers, schools, local governments, community event planners and businesses that are dedicated to Zero Waste.

Reaching the goal of Zero Waste is quite a feat, but it becomes more feasible with the commitment of each sector of the community to adopt Zero Waste practices. They go beyond recycling to compost all they can, reuse items that would otherwise be disposable and make green purchases from the beginning.
