The UUCM Justice Team invites you to an afternoon of 'Talking Trash' with our very own, self-proclaimed Nevada County Trash Laureate, Paul Elias.Paul has lived in Nevada County for 37 years and worked as Recycling Manager for Grass Valley Disposal and Waste Management of Grass Valley and Sacramento in the mid-90s into the early 2000s. "I'm probably one of the few, if any who's read the 2012 Nevada County 20-year contract with Waste Management of Nevada County -- how do you spell boondoggle?"
How are we doing with the "afterlife" of waste generated in Nevada County? And what's up with SB1383: are we going to keep food waste out of our garbage? Plus hear how those in Nevada City can still do their civic duty, despite the city taking a pass (which they are allowed to do) by composting meat, fish, pasta, breads, etc., to reduce food waste methane generation! Also learn about rearing food waste-eating black soldier flies -- harmless and 40% protein!
If you have a nose for trash, or you're just interested to learn more, join Paul and other passionate "waste "junkies" to find out about the interesting and fascinating world of our waste.
