VIATeC Sustainability Round Table

Topic

Pedal to Petal + The Soap Exchange

P2P supports local urban agriculture while providing a carbon-neutral service that keeps food waste out of landfills. Our ideal is to compost kitchen scraps locally, in a "hot compost" environment, and then donate the finished product to local food growers with all the transportation in between done on bikes!

The Soap Exchange promotes the benefits of reusing bottles and buckets of soaps and other cleaning products, and promotes the use of biodegradable, "greener" products that are inexpensive and most importantly, quite effective. These products can be used in the office and at home.
