Hi friends! We wanted to give you a quick Glass Half Full update about all that’s going on with us!
Check us out in The Guardian!
We’re so honored to be featured in The Guardian. Click here to read the article “Can recycled glass help restore Louisiana’s eroding coastline?”
“One of the project’s aims is to remind community members that individuals are able to mitigate the compounding effects of climate change. “We always hear, ‘Oh, we can’t do anything about climate change. We can’t do anything about the environment. It’s all the big companies [and] the government. It’s up to them’,” Trautmann says. “But when you collect glass over one year, you’re like, ‘Oh s***. Individuals can do something.’ All those little things add up to something much bigger.”
Door-to-door pickup service for businesses is here!
We have wanted to capture all of the glass coming out of our bars and restaurants since the very beginning, and it’s finally happening! A big thank you to our first clients Snake and Jakes, Martin Wine Cellar, Faubourg Wines and Good Eden for trusting us with this process and helping us master the commercial pickup game! We cannot wait to see this program expand and divert TONS of glass from our landfills every single day! Spread the word or sign-up for service at glasshalffullnola.org/business-pickup We would not have accomplished this today without you!
