#plastic-waste-reduction

Concerned about the amount of waste and use of nonrenewable items in school cafeterias, some Bay Area students and school districts have initiated changes toward more sustainable practices. In response to students' requests to be more eco-friendly, the Campbell Union School District has increased recycling efforts and is taking steps to reduce plastic waste. The district also plans to offer compostable utensils and large condiment dispensers in lieu of individual condiment packets.
