Waste matters, in how it affects our natural resources and reducing greenhouse gas emissions. So, producing zero waste should be everyone\u2019s goal or develop our products & consumables that result in waste to be as bio-friendly. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Zero-Waste-Washington <\/a>(state) has set out to achieve that mission, not at an individual level but rather develop laws & programmatic changes for a larger impact. They have seven priority programs that focus on pollution reduction, educating responsibility & innovation. <\/p>\n\n\n\n It is exciting to see they announced the first Pacific NW Zero Waste Hackathon<\/a>. It is a five week virtual competition. They have weekly seminars, coaching, learning tools & collaboration sessions. Applications open on September 9, 2020, for current student and former graduate entrepreneurs across the Pacific Northwest. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Good luck to all the Pieneers!<\/p>\n\n\n\n [Image Credit: Thanks to PublicDomainPictures via Pixabay<\/a>]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Waste matters, in how it affects our natural resources and reducing greenhouse gas emissions.
