The grant helps cover the cost of program supplies, as well the new Eco-Heroes program. To kick off the summer, sustainability intern Melissa Krizan invited junior naturalists to participate in a zero waste recycling challenge using recycling bins purchased from TerraCycle.

Kilowatt Events once again designed and executed the award show’s red carpet, which featured attention-grabbing letters and sponsor logos nestled in green hedging. The production company's sustainability arm, Kilowatt One, ensured a carbon-neutral event, creating a red carpet made from 100-percent recycled materials and drought-tolerant succulents in place of flowers. More than 1,000 reusable water bottles were provided for staff and crew, and tote bags were given to all showrunners to prevent single-use bag usage. The team also used a TerraCycle Zero Waste Box to recycle supplies from the production office.

Recycling used to be so simple: aluminum cans, glass bottles, newspapers and paper bags.

The company’s mission is recycling the previously unrecyclable, such as cigarette butts, contact lenses and chewing gum.
