45. Zero Landfill Initiative: How It Started and Where It's Going with Patrice and Justin La Vigne

In episode 45 of the Outdoor Minimalist Podcast, we get to talk about another exciting initiative! If you listened to last week’s episode, then you know we discussed the 30x30 initiative among several other national and California specific initiatives. Anyway, in this episode we are chatting about the Zero Landfill Initiative that has been going on for a few years in select National Parks.

I hadn’t heard much of anything about this until my guests today brought it to my attention.

Patrice and Justin La Vigne are writers and environmental educators who live outside of Denali National Park in Alaska. From 2018-2020, they were Zero Landfill Initiative Traveling Trainers for the Leave No Trace Center for Outdoor Ethics and Subaru of America, traveling around the United States doing outreach and education in the three national parks working to become zero landfill.
