Envisioning a Smarter Waste Collection System for Lexington

Waste costs are rising, definitions of “trash” are changing, and trash incineration continues contributing to climate change. Join the next event in a series of community forums as we work to envision a smarter waste system for Lexington.

Forums will feature information on:

• Lexington’s current waste stream
• External influences on a waste system
• Waste reduction strategies
• Making waste reduction strategies work in Lexington

There will be time for questions after each presentation. We’ve compiled an informational graphic on waste reduction, outlining the current state of Lexington’s waste collection system and what strategies we could employ to support our waste reduction goals.
