Student letter writing campaign at San Francisco school prompts adoption of compostable lunch trays

Commodore Sloat officials say they received handwritten letters from students asking the school to reduce plastic waste -- and school leaders listened. In partnership with Revolution Foods, the school has switched to compostable trays. "It's good for the environment because it can be composted instead in the trash," said teacher Raphael Hitzke. "It's amazing for 10- to 11-year-olds to be heard and having their voices heard. They're our future. They have brand new ideas. We need to listen to them."
