Mission Statement
The Zero Waste Boise Institute seeks to counter the environmental, social, and financial impact of throw-away consumerism, by advancing the principles of Reduce and Reuse, through educational outreach and local initiatives.
Description
ZWBI was founded in 2017 to realize three primary aims:
REDUCE. ZWBI encourages the sustainable consumption of material goods through greater awareness of the potentially irreversible impact of "throw-away" consumerism.
REUSE. ZWBI facilitates local opportunities to re-circulate materials and merchandise, in order to minimize landfill encroachment and to provide consumers with alternatives to newly manufactured goods.
RETHINK. ZWBI promotes resourceful ways of living well with less, in order to ensure a pristine, habitable, and naturally abundant landscape for future generations of Idahoans.
