Short Description of your Research or Creative Project (700 characters or less)

Did you know our solid waste doesn't reside with us here in Humboldt County? We didn't either. In fact, it's actually trucked, container by container, about 280 miles south to a landfill in Solano County. Through our service-learning partnership with Zero Waste Humboldt, and collaboration with Humboldt Waste Management Authority and Recology, we are producing public service announcements and other media messages to communicate inclusive and effective solutions by cultivating a community of stakeholders in our shared environment. We intend to provoke community members, businesses, and organizations of Humboldt County to reexamine the responsibilities that come with the waste we produce.
