The Waste Less Windsor Story
Waste Less Windsor was formed as a Task Force for the Town of Windsor five years ago. WLW volunteers are primarily from Windsor High School Leadership classes and the Council for Change Club.
Volunteers help attendees sort recyclables like cans and bottles and compostables such as pizza boxes and leftover food containers. This has reduced the amount of waste that goes in the landfill by up to 70%. This achievement directly helps combat greenhouse gases and saves valuable resources.
Another effort to help reduce waste is promoting the use of reusable cups instead of single use plastic cups. A few years ago, steel metal cups were introduced at Summer Nights on the Green, and we demonstrated that we could switch away from single-use plastic, keeping about 10,000 plastic cups out of the garbage.
Finally, in 2023, we switched over to new aluminum cups which stopped the disposal of single-use cups completely.
