Let’s Talk Waste: better understanding and reducing your waste footprint
With its 700kg of waste per person per year, Switzerland is the European champion of waste production and in the top 10 worldwide. While we recycle a lot of our waste in Switzerland, the word “recycling” tends to be put on a pedestal and is often used to describe low-quality valorization methods. You have the power to reduce your waste footprint by becoming even better at recycling and by rethinking your habits as a consumer. If you are interested, come meet Julia the founder of Let’s Talk Waste at the Climate Show on September 19th, 2020 à 1pm. This workshop will be in French but questions will gladly be heard and answered in English.#rethink #letstalkwaste #parlonsdéchets
