On Monday, October 31st 2016 I attend a guest lecture about Zero Waste. The speaker were Mrs. Warma (also head of Environmental Engineering Department in ITS), Prof. Paul Connet, and Mr. Froilan Grate.  There are 10 steps to Zero Waste according to Prof. Connet:
Third, Mr. Grate began his explanations about how Philippines applied Zero Waste Program in 250 villages. Their program focused on waste management in source, which is separation. And the waste will be managed in village. Not only reducing the waste, this program also increased the income of the villagers and save the money for waste transportation. |

Thanks for sharing, Dewi! I also have heard the concept of 'zero waste' several times, but it is really hard to practice in daily life. I guess it is important to make it a habit, and the nation should also focus on developing waste management skills. Have a great day: )

More n more companies globally need to come forward and implement the principles of circular economy. I recently read that Google,one of the latest mega-corporations, is going to commit to the principles of a circular economy(one that keeps 'technical nutrients' like plastic and silicon out of the landfill, and trims out wasted water, energy, food, and land). Thanks for sharing.
