At the Mountain View Art & Wine Festival, ReThink Disposable diverted 5,500 single use cups out of the trash, eliminating nearly 300lbs of CO2 from the air!
Clean Water Fund’s ReThink Disposable program is working in Connecticut with the City of Middletown and Sustainable CT to transition all ten Middletown public schools to 100% reusable foodware and enhance Middletown’s profile as a leader in sustainability. We are thrilled to be partnering with Middletown schools to green their food operations!
The “correct” use of melamine foodware requires that the dish not be heated above 160 degrees. When food is served on melamine plates there is relatively low cross contamination from the plate to the food. However, once you put that plate in the microwave, you’re immediately pushing past that safety zone.
Clean Water Fund’s ReThink Disposable program has been awarded a NOAA Marine Debris Pollution Prevention Grant to launch ReThink Disposable in 6 of our Clean Water Action offices along the East Coast and the Great Lakes.
