Want to help our community by talking trash? Join the citizen scientists who are hitting the streets to ask Missoulians to take part in the Missoula Waste Survey.
As our community moves toward Zero Waste, knowing more about people's attitudes toward waste is important. What do people think about waste? Why do they choose to reduce it? Why do they choose not to?
The answers to questions like these will be critical to the development of systems and programs that our community needs to get to Zero Waste and become more sustainable.
Whether your passion is conservation, climate change, quality of life, or social justice, waste impacts us all. Reducing waste is a big step toward building a sustainable Missoula and creating a community less reliant on virgin resources, which emits fewer greenhouse gases, brings people together, and fosters a vibrant local economy for all.
