Did you know that approximately 40% of garbage is from a combination of packaging and uneaten food? By instituting waste reduction measures (Reduce-Reuse-Recycle and Compost) with waste-free lunch guidelines, school districts can put their dollars into educational resources rather than the trash can! Also, by being more aware of the energy and water used in a day and instituting a no or low-cost plan to reduce usage, even more dollars and resources can be saved!
