National Aquarium, Eco-Products Team Up to Convert Guests’ Trash to Fertile Soil

Eco Products is partnering up with the National Aquarium to convert guest’s trash into fertile soil. This is a very innovative effort that will prevent trash from going into a landfill. Eco Products is giving tons of different things like compostable cups and plates and lids to the National Aquarium. This change is going to eliminate sources of pollution for both humans and the environment. Guests will also be inspired to change because of this new effort.

Key Takeaways:

  • Disposable plates and utensils save washing dishes and mess, not to mention breakage, but can fill up garbage dumps.
  • New products from Recycled Green Industries are biodegradable; combining convenience with environmentally friendly materials.
  • By focusing not on trying to change the behavior of people, but fit products into their existing behaviors, the outcomes for all are improved.

“The benefits of this effort extend way beyond the National Aquarium,” Martinez said. “It’s a wonderful example of how used items don’t need to become waste. They can have another life.”
