Congratulations to St Elizabeth Seton School for their recognition of “Community Spotlight” by Palo Alto for their work implementing Zero Waste best management practices around campus, among staff and students alike. By setting up and using waste stations in lunch areas and classrooms, the school increased their diversion rate from 67% to 87%. Diversion rate is the amount of material recycled or composted and therefore diverted from the landfill. On top of protecting the environment, these Zero Waste efforts have also resulted in the school saving money on their service fees! Well done!
