OUR MISSION
To establish systems that incorporate a sustainable end-of-life for all materials — re-use, recycle, re-purpose, or safe and healthy re-integration into natural systems as a path to zero waste.
OUR VISION
To create a circular society where what little waste we produce is simply food (organic) or feedstock (technological) for something else, by providing the means for no waste to be sent to landfills, incinerators or the ocean.
GOALS
Our main goal is to convene key stakeholders – public and private – to find the solutions to achieve zero waste and test them via pilots and monitoring. To do this now, by acknowledging the crisis confronting Long Island and the Earth.
Another goal is to address waste as a means of reducing greenhouse gases, to be in line with Town solid waste management plans (SWMPs) as well as the Climate Smart Communities program and to achieve the goals of the NY State Climate Leadership & Community Protection Act (CLCPA).
Another is to help develop beneficial industries here in our region that can create a circular economy.
