Make your office a Zero-Waste Office

We help organizations identify where waste can be prevented, quantify and shocase the impact of changing everyday material decisions, and build their own zero-waste roadmap.

Mission City Chakra builds the decision system. The company uses it to understand itself, choose its priorities, set targets, implement, measure and communicate progress.

A self-guided pathway to a low-waste, resource-efficient workplace

Know where you are.
Know what you can change.
Measure what it could achieve.
Set your own roadmap.

Waste doesn't begin in the bin. It begins with a decision.

What we buy.
What we provide.
What we allow.
What we reuse.
What we throw away.

Mission City Chakra helps offices redesign these everyday decisions to prevent waste at source.

Can we reduce it?
↓
Can we reuse it?

How do we manage what remains?

The objective is not a zero-waste bin but a zero-waste system.

3. The Corporate Zero Waste Resource Library

Everyday decisions that create or prevent waste

Every module examines one material or practice and asks:

What are we using today?

What does it cost?

What is its environmental and health impact?

What alternatives exist?

What has worked elsewhere?

What would change if we switched?

How can we measure the impact?
