Eugene Does Sustainable Olympic Trials
Gotta hand it to my home town for stepping up while they have the spotlight with how to throw a sustainable party. Love the all-compostable table service…
“Plans include purchasing wind-generated electricity from the Eugene Water & Electric Board to power the event — an estimated 200,000 kilowatt hours over 10 days. Caterers and food venders have committed to using all-compostable table service — a move that should allow athletes, media, volunteers and fans to dump their leftovers — food, plate, straw and even ketchup containers — into the compost bin with one easy plop.” — The Register Guard
