Mar Vista Elementary now has its very own green team, the Green Dolphins, to help the school become even greener. We started with recycling bins last year and this year we’ll be working to reduce the overall amount of trash the school generates.
 
One place we can really make a big difference in helping keep our planet healthy is reducing waste from our lunches. According to wastefreelunch.org all those juice boxes and extra packaging generate 67 pounds of waste per child each school year. We can make a big dent in that simply by rethinking the way we do lunch.

http://www.wastefreelunches.org/HowTo.html
 
What can you do?
Bring a Zero Waste Lunch to school!
That’s right. You can pack a trash-free lunch by following the 3 simple steps below
.
 

1.
Try a reusable insulated lunch box instead of a plastic bag or paper bag.
 
2.
Pack a sandwich in a reusable container labeled with your child’s name.
There are lots of choices here from a simple Tupperware to a reusable sandwich bag from Wrap-N-Mat or Resnack-it.
You could also wrap it in waxpaper.
 
3.
Try a reusable bottle instead of a juice box. 
Add a cloth napkin and a reusable spoon and there will be nothing to throw away!
