SUMMARY:Transitioning to the Universal Recycling Ordinance: A Roadmap for Austin Businesses
DESCRIPTION:From Earth Day Austin –\nThe event is for anyone operating a local business or involved in the policy or the business of recycling and composting. Snacks and beverages will be provided. Panelists will include Stacy Guidry\, president of Zero Waste Strategies\, and Dustin Fedako\, founder and CEO of Compost Pedallers.

October 2016 marks a milestone in the roll-out of Austin’s Universal Recycling Ordinance as we embark on having all businesses recycling by October of 2017. October 2016 starts with the introduction of organics diversion for businesses greater than 15\,000 sq. ft.  \n\nWhat does this actually mean for businesses? \nHow is the roll-out going so far? \nWhat is included in the organics diversion requirement? \nIs Austin prepared to provide the necessary infrastructure? \nWhat can we all do to support the process?\n\nWe will address these questions as well as the common implementation challenges businesses are facing\, and what resources they can rely on for support.

SUMMARY:Where are the Lines? Coexistence of Environmental Causes in a Conservative Texas
DESCRIPTION:From Earth Day Austin –\nThe environmental cause is growing\, and it must be inclusive to grow–we know it must.  But the word “inclusive” can cut both ways\, especially here in Texas\, a primarily Republican state. How do we keep pushing our sustainability issues forward while navigating the Texas political environment and all that it brings? \nJoin us for a panel-led open discussion on how environmental causes best coexist and progress in a state like Texas. We need environmental leadership from “both sides of the aisle” and we need to move fast at bringing everyone to the table. That means working with people we don’t see eye-to-eye with on every issue. Where do we draw lines? Do we let others draw them for us? What is the balance? \nSnacks and beverages are generously sponsored and catered by Barr Mansion. Join the conversation\, network with others from Austin’s environmental leadership and make new friends at this Austin Green Room networking series. \nRSVP at rsvp@earthdayaustin.com.
