We’re working to create a whole new cultural idea - Throw-Away-Free Places - and make it the new normal. Our goal: eliminate throw-away at the iconic places we love and show why its better.

Grabbing lunch at the aquarium, zoo, museum or game? No problem. No throw-away.

Imagine visiting Throw-Away-Free Places throughout the country.

Imagine taking Throw-Away-Free to an entire city - no more throw-away when you’re sitting down to eat, and all the restaurants and food delivery businesses are using reusable to-go cups and to-go boxes that are part of a community-wide system.

Sound crazy? Pie in the sky? The great news is that it’s happening right now.
