Every minute in Broward County we are generating 20,000 pounds of waste! Most of it ends up in the landfill or waste-to-energy plant. With the waste-to-energy plant at capacity and the in-county landfill nearing capacity, we need to divert as much of our valuable waste as possible. Approximately 62% of the waste sent to the landfill or waste-to-energy plant could be diverted with the programs presented in the Master Plan. Disrupting the status quo is required to meet the needs of our growing population and economy.
Broward County stands at a pivotal moment in its environmental and public service evolution. As one of the most populous and diverse counties in the State of Florida, we are both uniquely challenged and uniquely positioned to lead in the transition to a more sustainable, efficient, and equitable solid waste and recycling system.
Elisa Jones is an admin and outreach staff member at the Solid Waste Authority of Broward County and a proud Broward Sierra Group member.
Attendee Prize Question | Eco Action Minute | Mini Zero Waste Swap!
APRIL 2ND ECO ACTION MINUTE: SUBMIT YOUR PLEDGE during the meeting to support the BSWA’s efforts! Let your city commissioners know you stand behind the work of the Authority.
APRIL 2ND IN-PERSON ACTIVITY: MINI ZERO WASTE SWAP! Let’s work hard to keep nice things out of the landfill. Bring some items you have around your home or garage that are in good and usable condition that you no longer want for other members to take home and reuse.
Examples: kitchen, office or art supplies, textiles, books, small appliances, electronics, garden supplies, etc. Any swap items leftover from the evening will be packed up and donated.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Please don’t bring the whole house or the junk drawer! We are simply asking you to be thoughtful about whether someone might like to have this or use that. We recommend showing up around 6:15 PM if you have a lot of giveaway stuff to lay out on the tables.
