A New Year of Zero Waste Learning
Congratulations to all of you who participated in a Zero Waste Event within the Squamish-Lillooet Regional District last year. Hopefully you have continued to practice some of the skills you have learned or maybe you have even shared some things you have learned with others. We are just getting started on another round of Zero Waste Workshops for this fall. My name is Heidi Lessman Simm and I am the new Zero Waste Educator for the SLRD. I just returned from a family holiday in Europe and was very inspired by how well and how much they recycle in many of the countries that we visited. It is just a way of life in some places. We have come a long way here in the corridor, with so many improvements but we have a goal to reach and we can join in on the Zero Waste Movement. I look forward to working with any or all of you this fall. I hope to see you at a workshop in your school soon!
