Catalyst Communities: Food Waste Collection and Composting - How to develop a curbside pick-up and municipal drop-off program
Food waste is estimated to make up almost 24% of Michigan’s municipal solid waste, with a significant portion coming from the residential sector. One way to capture and recycle this valuable resource is through community drop-off programs which offer a proven path to introduce food waste recycling to residents. Learn about developing and existing programs, the challenges and opportunities associated with food waste composting efforts, and how pilot programs can be used to foster investments into curbside collection of food waste.
