earthday365 is Launching Kind Box!

 

Help us test out our new pilot program Kind Box, the first regional reusable to go container program! We're launching at Green Dining Alliance restaurants Crispy Edge and The Royale, and we need your help to test the app for this pilot program. Download the app, let the restaurants know you want your order in a Kind Box, and scan the box's QR code with the app. Once you're finished with your delicious meal, return the box to one of our Return Stations, feeling good about wasting less! This pilot program is in it's test phase, so we've also created a form for your feedback on what could be improved, linked below. We've been working hard to get this off the ground, so we're excited to share this with you!

The Great Pumpkin Composting Event!

As our pumpkin composting collection comes to a close for the season we would like to share the great work we did together! After the Thanksgiving weekend, Total Organics Recycling picked up 1,386 pounds of pumpkins left at our office!

About 100 people dropped off pumpkins that were hauled for composting at a St. Louis Composting facility. That’s 4,206 total pounds diverted (over two tons) from the landfill in November 2022!

 

Give a Sustainable Gift this Season!

Going shopping, or the perceived obligation of gift-giving, can feel like a daunting task. However, we may still want to show our appreciation or share the festive spirit in some way. We're happy to share the annual staff of earthday365 Green Giving Guide. Find out how we approach this consumer-heavy time of year.
