Go Green OC launches Pilot Compost Program in Ocean City, Maryland.

This week has been an interesting one.   We were squeezed out of the Ocean City Green Team meetings.  If you don't know what the Ocean City Green Team is let us explain.  This committee meets every 2 months and the board is represented by multiple local organizations.  They make decisions on local smoking ordinances, plastic straw bands or dogs pooping on the beach.  When they find an issue of importance they escalate it to the City Council and Mayor for approval.  

Covanta wrote us a letter regarding our speech to the Green Team. We responded.

Composting is far more than just free fertilizer for the garden. It’s a vital and necessary sustainability strategy for reducing waste, closing the nutrient cycle, and preventing air pollution that causes climate change.

Go Green OC officially launched on Earth Day.  Let's work together to bring back recycling to Ocean City, end trash incineration and move towards zero waste.
