Great meeting one of your greenest citizens. Zachery has been working hard for several years now on educating the convention industry on the ins and outs of reuse.
His organization Greener Vegas has made a real impact with millions of tons of materials that would have gone into the landfills being diverted to community projects throughout Las Vegas.
His bigger idea of helping shift convention and conference waste streams is even more excited. This initiative is called RepurposeAmerica.org. By eliminating landfill and garbage, the organization can feed these resources back to the local communities.
Check out our upcoming video with him at his warehouse as we talk about Vegas’ path toward sustainability.
Also, I met with the organization, Springs Preserve 10 minutes from the Strip. This museum and education center is a shining beacon for sustainability. They have merged so many excellent education tools. Check out this place whenever you visit Vegas. It is a hidden treasure!
