In response\, some state environmental agencies have begun to require reporting on chemical use in certain products and to publish the available data. The Interstate Chemicals Clearinghouse (IC2) held a “Chemical Use Disclosure” webinar to kick-off a series of discussions designed to help shape the future of these information resources. It featured presentations on: \n\nThe newly released Washington Department of Ecology online system for searching for information collected from manufacturers on the use of about 60 chemicals of high concern in children’s products; and\nThe Interstate Mercury Education and Reduction Clearinghouse (IMERC) online database covering the intentional use of mercury in products.\n\nThe IC2 has posted a PDF version of the presentation and made a video of the webinar and follow-up discussion available on NEWMOA’s YouTube channel here . \nThis initiative is made possible with funding support from the John Merck Fund and participation from the BizNGO Network and the GC3.

Because each state’s pollution prevention and compliance assistance program is somewhat different in the scope of its activities and its structure\, the software can be customized so that programs can use only those components and the level of detail that suit their needs. \nFor more information\, visit: Pollution Prevention & Assistance Tracker (P2@) Software URL:https://www.newmoa.org/event/documenting-p2-program-activities-getting-outcomes-updates-to-the-pollution-prevention-compliance-assistance-metrics-database-software/ CATEGORIES:Pollution Prevention END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20120918T120000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20120918T130000 DTSTAMP:20230118T143403Z CREATED:20230117T204846Z LAST-MODIFIED:20230118T143403Z UID:10000519-1347969600-1347973200@www.newmoa.org SUMMARY:People\, Planet\, Profit: How to Benefit from Sustainable Initiatives in Hospitality DESCRIPTION:I’ve certified my hotel as “green”\, now what?

In the U.S. more food ends up in landfills and incinerators than any other material – even more than paper and plastic. This is especially true for the hospitality sector\, where a considerable portion of the budget goes towards buying food – and then disposing of the unused food as waste. In this webinar\, participants will learn how food waste has significant economic\, as well as environmental consequences\, and ways that it can be diverted from the traditional disposal methods and recovered for donation\, recycling\, and composting. See the webinar agenda and links to presentations below. \nIntroduction – 10 min \nFood Waste 101 & the EPA Food Recovery Challenge – 25 min\nSpeaker: Jean Schwab\, EPA National Food Recovery Initiative\nJean Schwab is leading the EPA’s new National Food Recovery Initiative as well as the EPA’s GreenScapes Program for sustainable landscapes in the Office of Resource Conservation and Recovery at EPA Headquarters. She has worked in the resource conservation and recycling field for 21 years – including over 18 years at EPA. Jean is the EPA lead and subject matter expert for organic materials management issues and serves on a number of national initiatives as a technical expert on materials and environmental management. She has a Bachelor’s degree in Business and a Master’s degree in Urban & Environmental Planning. \nPrepared Food Donation: A Socially Responsible & Simple Alternative to Throwing Away Surplus Food – 20 min\nSpeaker: Jim Larson\, Food Donation Connection\nJim Larson directs program development for Food Donation Connection (FDC)\, LLC.

Jim works with Feeding America and advocates in the US Congress to encourage the donation of surplus prepared food by improving current food donation tax laws\, explaining the issues involved and providing statements for House and Senate committees. \nViva Recycling! – Food Scrap Recycling in Las Vegas – 20 min\nSpeaker: Brad Tomm\, MGM Resorts International\nBrad Tomm is the Director of Sustainability for MGM Resorts International’s Energy and Environmental Services Division.
