How to do the Waste Less Wisconsin Challenge

The Waste Less Wisconsin Conservation Challenge asks you to get an idea and carry it out to reduce waste, prevent pollution or conserve resources. Strive for a change that goes beyond your own household in some way, either by involving a team, a business or a community, or by communicating about what you change in your own life in a way that inspires others to waste less too.
