Zero Waste Connecticut Schools Coalition Forming

WILTON, CT — The first Zero Waste schools coalition meeting will be held on Wednesday, Oct. 17, from 7 to 9 p.m. in Wilton for those interested in reducing waste in their local schools.

The Zero Waste schools coalition was formed through the efforts of Wilton Go Green to create a platform for schools in Connecticut to connect, learn and share ways to introduce or enhance programming to reduce waste in our schools.

Attendees at the meeting will hear from members of the Wilton Zero Waste schools committee, Center for EcoTechnology, Curbside Compost, Chartwells Food Service, and more.

Coalition chairman Tammy Thornton may be emailed at tammythornton1112@gmail.com.

Residents interested in joining the Zero Waste Schools Coalition Facebook Group are encouraged to search “Zero Waste Schools Coalition” in “Groups” to request to join.
