Description:

Join us to listen to a presentation on how Los Angeles County is addressing California Senate Bill 1383 for food waste recycling.

  
From rotten apples to vehicle fuel - Johnmar Deguzman and Winnie Siauw will explain how the Sanitation Districts are transforming food waste into renewable energy for LA County, and what this means for the future of our community. Winnie will discuss California's Senate Bill 1383 which requires organic waste diversion from landfills to help reduce greenhouse gases. Johnmar will discuss how the Sanitation Districts have responded to the law through the agency's Food Waste Program by accepting organic waste, generating biogas through anaerobic co-digestion, and converting it into renewable natural gas as vehicle fuel.
