COMMUNITY
CLP engages and supports youth, educators, and communities to innovate ways of changing waste and consumption patterns.
Imagine an entire school producing almost no waste. Imagine designing a system to recapture waste as a resource. Imagine youth creating the change.
​
Our Nearly Zero Project is a toolkit to get whole schools walking on the path to changing the culture of waste in their buildings and believing in their students to lead it.
1
We innovate ways to limit consumption in the classroom, in our backyards, and everyday life.
2
We find ways to utilize
waste as a resource.
3
We spread understanding of
the social and environmental effects of what we buy, eat, and how we choose to live.
4
We reclaim unused school gardens, we foodscape school campuses, and we relearn with youth how to grow food.
5
We teach about food justice, food literacy, and how healthy soil leads to healthy food which grows a healthy body.
We are excited about any opportunity to connect with our community. Find out how to get involved by donating, volunteering or partnering with us below!
