ABOUT US
“We empower and inspire people to reduce their waste through meaningful relationships and collaboration.”
Seattle Zero Waste was created by passionate zero wasters with the goal of bringing like-minded people together. Working as a zero waste community, we can share sustainability tips and tricks, expand our ideas for reducing waste, and have a stronger voice as we vote with our dollar. We started as a group of four people getting together to talk about how to live with less waste and take care of the environment. Since the initial gathering in 2016, the group has grown to 1500+ followers on Instagram, a 6000+ member Facebook group, and 30+ people who meet every month in Seattle to share ideas and have fun! Join us!
