Connecticut is facing a growing waste crisis, and most people don’t even realize it.

We are running out of space for our trash, and nearly 40% of Connecticut’s waste is shipped out of state — increasing costs and environmental impact each year.

What many don’t realize is that a large portion of what ends up in the trash doesn’t belong there.

Food scraps, compostable materials, and recyclables are still being sent to landfills daily.

This isn’t just a system issue — it’s an awareness issue.

At EcoGreen Pathways, our goal is to help Connecticut residents better understand what can be diverted, reduced, and composted.

Small changes can lead to a big impact.
