Join us on Thursday, June 17 at 7 p.m. for an online community gathering exploring the challenges and solutions of restaurant takeout.
 
Have you noticed how single-use take-out containers create a lot of trash?
Do some of your favorite restaurants offer compostable solutions? Do tell!
What can an eco-friendly diner do to be part of the plastic pollution solution?
Is there a Styrofoam ban or other policies protecting against excessive takeout trash in Lafayette and nearby cities?
 
In a series of rapid-fire presentations on Zoom, we’ll discuss these topics with a local restaurant owner, the developer of a trashy takeout phone app, a recycling expert with Republic Services, a high school environmental activist, a Lafayette Environmental Task Force member, a zero waste business leader and Sustainable Lafayette board members.
