Nearly 25% of what ends up in U.S. landfills is food 😳

Let’s all do our part to reduce food waste by:
🌱 Composting it
🍎 Planning smarter
🗑️ Wasting less

Reducing food waste is one of the easiest ways to cut down on landfill trash and protect the planet.

Whether you’re rethinking your habits, making sustainable swaps, or picking up litter in your community, every action adds up.

Make it official - take the pledge today! kab.org/pledge

The EQB would like to extend its gratitude to everyone who came out in the rain yesterday to Clean Up Day. Special thanks to Peters Township Parks & Recreation for allowing us to use their space for registration, Peters Township Police Department for keeping all of the volunteers safe as we cleaned up our roadways, and Peters Township Public Works for also ensuring our safety and picking up all of the bags we collected.

It was amazing to see the Peters Township High School Interact Club out in full force, on a Saturday, in the rain. They truly epitomized the power of Service Above Self. They did a great job. Thank you!

Thank you again to everyone. See you all next April!
