Jessica Toth, Solana Center for Environmental Innovation
Title
Executive Director
Speaker Abstract
Solana Center for Environmental Innovation has been consulting to business, event-organizers, and schools about waste prevention and diversion for a decade. The result is thousands of pounds of edible foods donated from school cafeterias; hundreds of businesses receiving outreach and training; and events achieving as much as 98% diversion. Solana Center’s Environmental Solutions team has addressed a variety of issues, including logistics, motivation, infrastructure, rescue partnerships, and donation dumping by food businesses. Jessica will share lessons from capacity planning as well as from the field based on the years of work by the team. She will also discuss trends in behaviors and solutions.
