Global Green is working with Contra Costa County to bring food waste collection and composting to apartments (5+ units), including in Walnut Creek.
As a part of this program, we're seeking to copy a model that's been used in other cities where people in the community sign up as "eco-ambassadors" to help bring composting to their apartment buildings and support the program once its in place.
On our side, we provide tenant outreach, before and after waste characterizations and reporting and recommendations to the property manager.
Please contact us if you live in an apartment building in Walnut Creek and you'd like to work with us to see if your building and property manager can serve as one of the pioneering leaders to start the program.
