Schools and Reuse Toolkit
Schools and Reuse
We can’t expect kids to be good stewards of the earth’s resources if their daily experience in the school cafeteria is that every meal ends with a big pile of throwaway foodware. Switching to non-toxic reusables is a great way to inspire students to have a healthy relationship with the food they eat the way it’s served.
