ConocoPhillips Canada, The City of Calgary, Clean Calgary Association, Society of Educational Resource Groups (SERG) and local School Boards will help pilot a NEW Waste-Free Lunch Program in October during Waste Reduction Week. Teachers and students will be encouraged to bring a waste-free lunch on school visits to Fort Calgary, TELUS World of Science, the Glenbow Museum, Inglewood Bird Sanctuary and Campus Calgary City Hall School. During this program pilot we hope to eliminate up to 8000 lbs of lunchtime waste this school-year and educate parents and students on lunchtime food and packaging options that will help reduce their EcoFootprint.
