          Miami-Dade County introduced a new Zero Waste Master Plan with the aim to reduce waste and safeguard our environment. With more than 30 impactful actions for the whole community, the plan targets the staggering 5 million tons of waste generated annually. Every person’s involvement counts. By working together, we can preserve precious resources, keep our neighborhoods sparkling, and create a brighter, greener tomorrow.
