Every year, an estimated six million tons of waste is produced by New York City. To help reach the Big Apple's goal of zero waste by 2030, about 100 product designers, engineers, waste and recycling experts and environmental lawyers teamed up in fall 2017 for
Hack:Trash:NYC, a three-day collaborative to develop and pitch an innovative product, business model, service, policy or education campaign that increases reuse and results in a meaningful diversion of waste from landfill.
