At this year’s event, we hosted a panel discussion who are either promoting or running a zero waste business.

We voted in our new term of board members and named our new officers for 2020-2021

We also shared an update on our four campaigns:

  • Zero Waste
  • Plastic Upcycling
  • Bring Your Own Cup (BYOC)
