Able Services proactively seeks out the latest evolutions in the industry and strongly believes the Zero Waste movement further refines the sustainability objective. WHAT IS ZERO WASTE OUR PROGRAM TECHNOLOGY RESOURCES “Zero waste is sending nothing to the landfill. Literally Zero. This goal of zero is near impossible at the moment because we have yet to evolve into a circular economy so as defined by the USZWBC, Zero Waste is the diversion of 90% of trash from the landfill.” ZWIA.org “Zero Waste is sending nothing to landfill or incineration.” http://sfenvironment.org “The TRUE Zero Waste certification system goes far beyond measuring and tracking ways in which waste is reduced, reused, recycled, or composted to calculating how waste is diverted from landfill, incineration, and the environment. It helps drive a circular closed loop economy, enables businesses to achieve their sustainability, waste and corporate social responsibility goals; helps facilities cut their carbon footprint and conserve resources; and creates new materials and jobs.” https://true.gbci.org What is a circular economy? “Looking beyond the current take-make-waste extractive industrial model, a circular economy aims to redefine growth, focusing on positive society-wide benefits. It entails gradually decoupling economic activity from the consumption of finite resources, and designing waste out of the system. Underpinned by a transition to renewable energy sources, the circular model builds economic, natural, and social capital.” – Ellen MacArthur Foundation Sustainability is a core component of the Able Services culture.
