Gulf Coast: TRUE Zero Waste

About this Event

Join us to learn more about TRUE, a zero waste program, and how it can help your facility go beyond recycling.

Want to learn more about the TRUE (Total Resource Use and Efficiency) program? TRUE projects are changing the conversation about waste by re-thinking everything that comes in and out of a facility from an upstream approach and viewing every material as a resource. We are asking businesses, campuses, and communities to go beyond recycling by reducing, reusing, rethinking, and redesigning their processes.

This presentation will provide an in-depth understanding of effective zero waste strategies such as the difference between a waste audit and a zero waste audit, showcase project case studies and give an overview of the https://true.gbci.org/true-advisorTRUE Advisor professional credential.

Feel free to review the many resources on the TRUE website in advance and come prepared with questions!

Connection details will be provided 24 hour prior to the webinar, with 1 CEU pending.
