Rubbish Renewed Eco Fashion Show
Project Details
Rubbish Renewed Eco Fashion Show will expand the Walk our Talk Program, a self-contained, reusable system for 600. The lendable system is modeled in a one night event saving thousands of disposable service ware from the landfill, and changing mindsets for a lifetime. Volunteers run the program with information to inspire use and replication of this lendable system for other events. It provides service/sorting/waste reduction ware, signage, educational materials and guide to create and promote a successful zero waste event, including partnering with: local garbage service; event venue host; food and beverage vendors; with clear signage and volunteer roles for facilitation.
