SEATTLE (Waste Advantage): Seventy-six percent of the material sent by homes and businesses to the Franklin County Sanitary Landfill every year has the potential to be reused, recycled or composted. In an ongoing effort to bolster the region’s sustainability by diverting more waste away from the landfill, SWACO is proud to announce new collaborations with the cities of Columbus and Dublin and the Village of Brice to capture more food waste and household recyclables.
The partnerships include comprehensive food waste reduction initiatives, including the establishment of convenient food waste drop-off sites for residents to use; implementing Save More Than Food, a public education campaign to raise awareness about responsible food disposal practices; and expanding recycling infrastructure.
“Collaboration is at the heart of our mission, and these joint efforts with the cities of Columbus, Dublin, and the Village of Brice exemplify the impact we can achieve by working together,” said Joe Lombardi, SWACO’s Executive Director. “Through our combined dedication to reducing food waste and enhancing recycling infrastructure, we are paving the way for a more sustainable and environmentally conscious central Ohio.”
