As part of the program, Lotus employees are utilizing TerraCycle’s All-In-One Zero Waste Boxes.
Lotus Pictures, a New York-based production company, has launched a zero waste program in an effort to divert more of its waste from landfill.
“Lotus Pictures wants to reduce our footprint and adopt environmentally friendly measures wherever possible,” said D. Michael Aspite, partner and executive producer of Lotus Pictures, in a statement. “Right now, we’re a small company, but we believe small steps can make a significant impact.”
One issue plaguing recycling efforts is the fact that only certain waste is accepted for recycling while the rest has to be thrown away. Lotus Pictures, a New York-based production company, is offering its employees a way to recycle their traditionally non-recyclable waste easily and sustainably with TerraCycle’s All-In-One Zero Waste Boxes.
According to senior management, Lotus Pictures started using Zero Waste Boxes in an attempt to do their part to combat waste since modern living generates massive amounts of garbage that goes to landfill and can be very environmentally harmful.
