Fall Tips - For Sustainability
UTILIZE THE FOOD SCRAP RECYCLING PROGRAM – Everyone in Lamorinda can put all types of food scraps into their green bin, including meats, cheese, bones, coffee grounds, and used paper towels. This is a tremendous opportunity to reduce the amount of garbage we are sending to the landfill, since food scraps constitute 15-20% of our total waste. It also prevents our food scraps from producing methane (a potent greenhouse gas) when they are rotting in a landfill.
