From noon until 1pm

At Nature Learning Center

**Please note this program has been postponed until June**

How much waste does the town of Conway produce? What efforts are being done to reduce that volume? Where does it all go? Paul DegliAngeli, Public Works Director, will discuss Conway’s ‘quest for zero waste’ at Tin Mountain’s monthly EcoForum series on Thursday, February 9, at noon.

Paul DegliAngeli has been the Public Works Director and Town Engineer for Conway since 1992. Prior to his work with the town he spent 10 years at the naval Shipyard. Paul currently serves on the Board of Directors for the following professional organizations; ASHRAE, SWANA and NHPWA. Paul and his family enjoy skiing, climbing, hiking, and biking throughout the Mount Washington Valley.

In his presentation Paul will discuss the community’s current program of mandatory recycling and assess the town’s progress in recycling over the years. The presentation will also discuss the potential move to mandatory composting, what that would mean for the town and examples of communities and regions that have current legal mandates for composting. Where does Conway stand in its quest for zero waste? Join us to find out!

The Eco-Forum lunchtime lecture series is sponsored by The Flatbread Company of North Conway and Frontside Coffee Roasters. It is presented at noon on the second Thursday of each month at the Tin Mountain Nature Learning Center in Albany. The public is urged to attend to learn more about salient issues facing our natural environment and to hear the views of thought-provoking speakers.
