This Earth Day 2022 event strives to be a Zero Waste event, the City’s first. San Antonio Parks & Recreation and event partners are supporting this effort by eliminating single-use plastics, switching to compostables, avoiding flyers and giveaway items, and helping attendees sort materials at zero waste stations. Guests can help achieve this goal, too, by packing a zero-waste picnic and bringing their own drinking container and utensils or keeping materials like bottles and cans clean and putting food waste in the right place. Zero Waste Stations, provided by the City’s Solid Waste Department, will be in numerous locations to help guests sort recyclables, compostables and trash. This event is also supporting the City’s climate initiatives by reducing waste and increasing product reuse.
