Ways to be Green

Silicon Valley Leadership Group recognizes the impacts that large events can have on the environment. This year, we have partnered with Nothing Wasted Consulting and the City of San Jose Environmental Services, and are working together to green the Silicon Valley Turkey Trot. Through this partnership, we will have implemented sustainable waste management practices into the event.

Any food scraps, paper food ware (such as plates, bowls, cups, napkins), and utensils can go into the green “compostable” container. Any plastic bottles, plastic containers, aluminum cans, and aluminum foil can go into the blue “recyclables” containers. For more information on our event greening efforts, please contact Nothing Wasted Consulting at contact@nothingwastedconsulting.com.

With your help, we can make this the Turkey Trot clean and green.
