    Also, if you search the web for "**** waste plans" you'll find many examples, especially in California.

    Regarding the question "where do we start to get to **** waste", the most effective element that many forget is the education piece. Whatever plan you implement, including source reduction, composting, recycling, donations, etc, you must have a continuous message to your residents and businesses about the benefits of your program and exactly how they can and should participate. In the states, business benefit financially from reducing waste to landfill, so that's a great incentive to get started.
