You'll join residents and businesses all over the city to try and produce no trash or recycling for a whole week.
The challenge will be led by 6-year zero waste veterans and Ann Arborites, Samuel McMullen and Lydia McMullen-Laird. They'll show you everything you need to know to have a successful week!
You'll start off learning the basics and groundrules and we'll give you our zero waste essentials list so you always have what you need out in the world.
Learn how to plan a zero waste shopping trip and get some of our favorite recipes and resources for a zero waste kitchen.
Learn all things compost! Why composting is our #1 zero waste swap, and how to set up (or find) a compost solution that works for you.
Learn how to go zero waste at home, from clothing to cleaning. We'll tackle hygiene, home office, and show you some tips and resources to get started on your zero waste home!
Avoiding waste doesn't have to mean sacrificing your social life. We'll give you some pointers and even a script for how to have positive interactions around zero waste.
Now you'll know more than most people do about zero waste and the circular economy! It's time to take that knowledge out into the world. We'll give you ways to stay involved and advocate for a zero waste world!
We consider anything produced new for you as "waste". This includes recycleables and any non-compostable packaging. Importantly it also means any appliances, t-shirts, bags, anything that you purchase new.
No worries! You're not in this to shame yourself into lowering your waste. It's all about understanding where your trash comes from, and collecting it over the course of a week is a really helpful way to get an idea where you can make improvements.
After you sign up for the challenge we'll send you a link to the giveaway. You'll also get a chance to earn extra entries by sharing the challenge with your friends or on social media!
