This #PlasticFreeJuly, we're learning from our Zero Waste Team ♻ Featuring Jessica Carver and Holly Lawrence! SEI's Zero Waste Schools Program helps schools implement sustainable waste reduction and recycling programs in the County of Marin. Reducing waste is only possible with the collaboration of the principal, teachers, students, and staff, and our team is grateful to visit schools to support community organizing and education. #zerowaste #plasticfree #seisustainability

Is Zero Landfill even achievable? We’d like to start a debate on the notion of 'Zero Landfill', a term often presented by the ITAD community to their customers. What does this actually mean? ♻️ Reduce – Stop buying as much stuff! In any part of our lives whether professional or personal. Material possession collection is part of the problem. ♻️ Reuse – Don’t destroy or throw away anything which has the potential to be reused. ♻️ Recycle – Make sure the materials which are within products are recovered and feed back into the manufacturing food chain. And, what does “Zero Landfill” mean? 🗑️Do we mean that no material at any time goes into a landfill? We hosted an extremely interesting webinar where we asked the experts to debate this: https://lnkd.in/eMtHuXnJ 🗑️Do we mean that all equipment is re-used in the format in which it was manufactured or in its component form, and if this is the case what happens to the hundreds of devices that have no second market value or those that are damaged beyond economical repair? 🗑️Do we mean that our own business does not put products directly into landfills as we pass all equipment for recycling downstream for processing? If so, does this really mean Zero Landfill or are we merely passing that action off downstream? We’re not looking to muddy anyone’s claims here, just discuss the reality of the challenges of circularity where waste is concerned.

❗ There’s no doubt that waste is a huge problem in today’s society and there is an increasing awareness that we need to reduce, reuse and recycle where possible. ♻ For #globalrecyclingday 2024 we caught up with Alastair Little from Biffa to chat about what we can do, both as individuals and organisations, to reduce the amount of waste that goes to landfill. Read the blog over on our website and have a think about what you could do to make a difference: https://bit.ly/3x182C4 #RecyclingHeroes #recyclingmatters #recyclingbusiness

As March unfolds, let’s remember our collective responsibility towards our planet. Small actions, done repeatedly, make a big difference! Key dates to take action: March 14 – International Day of Action for Rivers: Consider organising a clean-up along a nearby riverbank – a great action for schools and community organisations. March 18 – Global Recycling Day: Take a moment to acknowledge the crucial role recycling plays in conserving our resources and sustaining our waste pickers and buy-back centres. Why not start separating your recyclables into plastics, paper, glass, and aluminium? March 22 – World Water Day: Recognised by the United Nations, this day underscores the fundamental right to safe and clean drinking water. Let's conserve water by catching shower run-off for other uses, like flushing the toilet. March 23 – Earth Hour: Join millions worldwide in this grassroots movement by turning off all lights for an hour at 8 pm. Show your commitment to sustainability and inspire positive change. #Environment #Sustainability #EarthMonth #DayofActionForRivers #GlobalRecyclingDay #WorldWaterDay #EarthHour #Conserve
