UNPACKING ALAMEDA
Featured article of the month
The city of Alameda has an exciting new partnership with Clean Water Action’s ReThink Disposable Program on an Ocean Protection Council grant-funded project called “Unpacking Alameda”, through the end of 2018.
The ReThink Disposable team works with restaurants and food businesses across town to implement cost savings practices designed to reduce disposable packaging and transition to washable reusables.
