The Path to Waste Diversion and Zero Waste to Landfill Certification with Gemma Antoniewicz and Katie Feenan from GreenCircle Certified

Tad Talks Sustainability

Waste Diversion from Landfill and Zero Waste to Landfill certifications are becoming more common in the marketplace. In this episode, Tad and Julianna sit down with Gemma Antoniewicz and Katie Feenan from GreenCircle Certified, to discuss the process for certifying Waste Diversion and Zero Waste to Landfill claims, why GreenCircle performs physical site audits as a part of this process, the types of waste they look at when completing these certifications, what the Acceptable Means of Diversion Hierarchy is, why GreenCircle also audits the client’s Material Management Organizations (MMO’s) that haul their waste, what GreenCircle’s Zero Waste to Landfill certification is different from other certifiers, how GreenCircle certifies events for Zero Waste to Landfill, and how waste diversion in operations relates to the sustainability of products. We also answer an audience question at the end of the episode about Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) Optimized certifications.
