What is Zero Waste?

Zero Waste is a philosophy and a design principle for the 21st Century. It includes ‘recycling’ but goes beyond recycling by taking a ‘whole system’ approach to the vast flow of resources and waste through human society. Zero Waste maximizes recycling, minimizes waste, reduces consumption and ensures a greener society.

What is the Circular Economy?

A lot of people credit Bea Johnson from Zero Waste Home with “inventing” zero waste. While she certainly popularized it as an at home lifestyle, the term was first used in the 1970s by Paul Palmer as an industrial term.

Generally, Zero Waste is a philosophy of eliminating the generation of materials that have no viable or economic option for end-of-use management. In reality, there are varying interpretations for when (and if) it is achieved. Does zero waste really mean zero waste?

Zero waste seeks to combat this disposable mindset by returning to a more simple and sustainable way of life. The zero waste movement is not a destination but a journey. And this particular journey isn’t about perfection but about striving to get as close to ‘0’ as possible and minimizing our waste stream.
