WHY PARTICIPATE?
-To better understand how the commercial/industrial-scale composting system works in Chicago, and the operations of our composting partners.
-To ask questions that may directly improve your organization’s efforts to increase the volume of organics diverted from landfill while maximizing education and minimizing contamination.
-To hear and share best practices, ideas on policy/procurement, ways to close the loop, challenges and opportunities in light of COVID-19, etc.

If you are interested but cannot attend, feel free to email Steph your question(s) and she will get you an answer… through this discussion or beyond.
