Tuesday, April 30 from 7-8:30pm. Cary Memorial Library, Living Room (1874 Massachusetts Avenue Lexington).

Internationally published author and humorist Eve Schaub challenged her family to attempt the seemingly impossible: to live in the modern world, for an entire year, without creating any trash at all. This talk will trace the high and low points of Schaub’s family’s Zero Waste journey, focusing on lessons learned and where we go from here.

Following Eve’s presentation and Q&A, we will hear from Maggie Peard, Lexington Sustainability and Resilience Officer, and Erica Bouchard Rabins, owner of Center Goods. Maggie will talk about curbside recycling options in Lexington and Erica will talk about greenwashing and how to avoid non-recyclable items with refillable and reusable items.
