Reach for Zero Waste Asheville: I got a notice in the mail the other day. It is the kind of notice I can get excited about! Good News from the Sustainability Outreach Program at the City of Asheville Office of Sustainability. We are going to be seeing new collection buckets on trash/recycling day!! YES!!!
As part of: the public education for Reach for Zero, Asheville: Zero Waste AVL the brand new recycling program and waste reduction efforts, zero waste concepts and tools, and what citizens can do to “Reach for Zero,” Laura Piraino, Sustainability Specialist will be joining the get-together at Green Drinks to share more about this effort.
It should be a
n interesting evening, given Laura's wealth of knowledge. . .

janeAnne, I'm attending my first "Green Drinks" gathering this week. I love the concept don't you? I'm sure Laura's wealth of knowledge will be a great asset to the get together.
Not too shabby of credentials, janeAnne. The Sierra Club is pretty impressive stuff. Kudos to Asheville for taking this momentous step in "green" living ...

That sounds pretty cool! Laura's got some pretty nice credentials. Keep up the great green circle of knowledge sharing.
