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. 

 

We are the change we have been waiting for.

ECE - 3rd Grade

This is such an important part of our programming at CLP!  These little spirits are our future!!  We believe so strongly that the years from 3-6 are the foundation to our entire educational experience.  This early science literacy curriculum is designed with a 45-minute worm bin experience every other week to explore cool stuff like the body of a worm and how worms move, and how in the word they turn our food waste into nutritious soil!  Shoot us an email if you are interested in bringing this amazing experience to your class or school!
