**Turning Waste into Gold: Composting at the Local Government Level [ [link removed] ]*

In the US, an estimated 30 to 40 percent of food produced ends up wasted. Encouraging and educating your residents to compost is a strategy to help keep food and yard waste out of Michigan landfills. Composting has both environmental and economic benefits and contributes to the development of a circular economy. This webinar will provide an overview of how local governments can begin thinking about composting in their communities. Attendees will hear about efforts from a Michigan community with a successful composting program. They will also learn about how local governments can educate and encourage residents to start composting at home, as well as create community wide programs.
