Global Green USA is seeking quick service restaurants looking to be greener to participate in a 150-store pilot in New York City. The pilot project wiil inform the design of a cost-effective, national recycling solution for foodservice packaging. Every year, 4.1 million tons of paper prepared food packaging is landfilled in the U.S. The collection and recycling of this material would decrease greenhouse gas emissions by 15 million metric tons of CO2, the equivalent of removing 3 million passenger vehicles from the road. The 150-store pilot will build upon the findings of previous pilot programs conducted in partnership with Starbucks Coffee Co., Pret A Manger, and other members of its Coalition for Resource Recovery.
