We're at COP30 with @gaiazerowaste.bsky.social to make the case that stopping waste methane is the quickest path to climate relief.

Over the first two days, @janekvahk.bsky.social has talked about data transparency at the WasteMAP event and organised the first ZWE event on bio-waste solutions 💪

That’s a wrap!

As the Global Zero Waste Forum 2025 ends, our message remains clear:
#zerowaste is not about burning waste or shifting blame to individuals.

It’s about proven, affordable systemic change that redesigns production, cuts plastic, and invests in communities.

For #zerowaste to thrive, we need reuse systems that SERVE people, NOT REPLACE them.

On Day 1 of the Global Zero Waste Forum, GAIA, our members & allies called for real #zerowaste solutions, not false fixes.

They reminded the world that:
🚫 "Waste-to-energy" incineration is not zero waste.
♻️ Plastic reduction, not just better disposal, is key to solving the crisis.
