2024 Summit for Recycling
Uplifting advancements in recycling, composting, & reuse in CO!
The Summit for Recycling is Colorado's local conference focused on providing you with opportunities to network, learn from, and celebrate with other recycling, composting, reuse, and zero waste professionals.
2024 Summit Theme: Overcoming Barriers to Circularity
Creating a circular system for materials within Colorado faces many obstacles, including lack of access for rural and underserved populations, end-markets that either don't exist or are priced below profitability, a weak transportation system that favors advantaged communities, and a lack of knowledge by the general public about how reuse, recycling, and composting systems operate.
The 2024 Summit for Recycling will be focused on how to overcome these barriers to foster an equitable, feasible, and sustainable circular economy. We will combine informational sessions with workshops, tours, and networking opportunities to facilitate the sharing of best practices, innovations, and plans for the future. Recycle Colorado welcomes a diverse set of perspectives as we strive to become a more inclusive organization that is working to promote a healthy and prosperous Colorado for all.
