Humans produce a lot of waste. From trash to greywater to biosolids, we generate more than we know what to do with. Agencies and organizations around the region are exploring best practices in sustainable waste management and attempting to tackle overconsumption at its source. Join us as we start thinking smarter about what we do with our doo-doo, and more.
