KAB Zero Waste Communities Webinar Series: Transformative Corporate Initiatives for a Waste-free World

Thu, March 18, 2021 | 1:00 PM - 2:00 PM CDT

Businesses have a critical role to play in creating a waste-free world. Reducing waste at every step of the production process is one part of the solution. The other part of the solution is driving toward “circularity” where waste that is still generated becomes a valuable input for other productive processes. Over the past decade, corporations have made commitments to achieving zero-waste goals. The critical question is whether these commitments are resulting in the needed transformative impact on an accelerating timeline 

In the webinar, we’ll be exploring: 

• Successful corporate efforts to significantly reduce waste and utilize reprocessed or recycled materials 
• Challenges and hurdles that businesses are facing for making transformative gains toward a waste-free world  
• Role of policy and regulations to establish the economy-wide forces for accelerating both waste-reduction and the circularity by business, large and small 

SERIES OVERVIEW

This Keep America Beautiful webinar series will bring together businesses, consumers, corporations, elected officials, and more, as well as Keep America Beautiful representatives to explore what a transition to zero-waste communities can look like. The series will continue the conversation that began at the Keep America Beautiful annual Vision for America event in 2020, which explored the vision around re-defining communities and how that can look in a waste-free world.
