Check out the Strathcona zero waste website for more info. I know that she rounded participants by having a free event in a local park with a band and facepainting etc and started conversations with people that way. I actually saw one of the zero waste signs outside someone's house the other day, and it was pretty cool - I actually felt like "hey, those guys are on the same team as me".

WOW!! The project sounds fab!!

Would love to hear/read more about it!

How did she approach the neighbours, what did she say (& what did they say), etc?

Some of our neighbours already recycle & compost, but not all!

Sounds like an awesome project! Their must have been a lot of careful steps in place to accomplish this. Also, your article is very well written.

Nice work,

Josh
