The
Zero Waste Communities of San Bernardino
County is made up of 16 cities/townships
and the County of
San Bernardino. They have partnered to educate their residents
and businesses on waste reduction, reuse, and recycling. Reducing
waste
will prolong the life of our landfill, ensuring a better quality
of life.
Some
of the "Zero Waste" goals include:
- Educating
consumers to buy products made of recycled materials, and
products that can be reused and repaired.
- Making
manufacturers take greater responsibility for
the proper disposal of their products.
- Improving
product design for easier reuse, repair and recycling.
- Promoting
waste prevention, recycling and composting.
