Zero Waste Fair promotes sustainable solutions on June 25

I Love A Clean San Diego County and the City of Encinitas will host the seventh annual Zero Waste Fair on Saturday, June 25. The event, held from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. at the EUSD Farm Lab, provides a chance to learn about all things zero waste with tips on low-waste living, composting, recycling, sustainable swaps for everyday products and more.

The event includes an informative panel of expert speakers, educational booths from local sustainable companies and nonprofit organizations, hands-on low-waste DIYs to take home, a dedicated Kids’ Corner with family-friendly activities and even a “Swap and Shop” booth for guests to take a few things and leave a few.

San Diegans generate about five pounds of trash per person per day – the most in the state. I Love a Clean San Diego believes residents have the solution to keeping items from going into landfills: small, daily actions toward zero waste that will collectively protect resources, the environment and their personal health.
