Home Resource encourages students to become zero waste ambassadors

The City of Missoula hosted the fourth session of the Home Resource Zero Waste Lunch & Learn Series on July 1, 2025, focusing on the Zero Waste Education Program. The meeting emphasized the role of students as ambassadors for zero waste practices within their communities.

During the session, representatives from Home Resource discussed the importance of leading by example. They explained that ambassadors are individuals who inspire and encourage others to adopt sustainable practices. The program aims to empower students to share zero waste ideas and educate their peers about reducing waste.

This initiative is part of a broader effort to promote environmental awareness and sustainability in Missoula. By engaging students as ambassadors, the program seeks to create a ripple effect, fostering a culture of sustainability among young people in the community.

The meeting highlighted the significance of grassroots education in achieving zero waste goals. As the program continues, participants are expected to take on leadership roles, helping to spread knowledge and encourage responsible waste management practices in their schools and neighborhoods.
