​​80% of Scotland’s carbon footprint comes from the things that we make, buy, use and throw away, often after one use. In order to address the climate emergency, we need to change the way that we consume and move towards a more circular economy, where we both use and waste less. Highland Waste Partnership

This event is for community groups who are:-

• active in projects that help communities in Skye and Lochalsh to reduce the amount of rubbish sent to landfill
• keen to develop, support or extend projects that encourage the circular economy approach of repairing, refurbishing or recycling
  ​
