Sustainability is about using what you have where you live before looking elsewhere, and it's about getting the most from local resources rather than calling it waste when it's not.

 

Recovering and renewing ignored and overlooked resources that have the potential for creating new green jobs, high-value circular materials and products, and reducing greenhouse gases. This is something we can and should be doing today, as every BTU of energy saved, and every oz of sequestered carbon retained has the collective potential to make a measurable difference environmentally (reduce global warming) and a economic contribution

 

Today Marin is missing out on many new green recovery and reuse jobs. MCBC is leading this cause, as it has the experience and know-how to reduce solid urban waste and create new green jobs while laying a sound recovery and reuse foundation essential to a circular community and economy. Our capacity to make all this possible is our unique approach to leveraging the TRUE VALUE of reuse materials and products, and our skilled ability to empower people to become more resourceful and creative, especially around reuse resources for their benefit and community benefit.

 

MCBC was certified by Zero Waste Marin 2016 to operate a recovery and reuse facility in Marin. Unfortunately, around the same time, MCBC was forced to close its doors on B Street in San Rafael, for a lack of funding.

 

I encourage all who understand the benefits of this community work to join with us in this community effort.
