The Teaching OUTSIDE the Box conference is going zero waste! Waste is reduced or eliminated where possible and made recyclable where unavoidable. As an attendee, some changes you may notice are reusable mugs and bottles in place of disposable cups for drinks and a reduction in the amount of paper materials received. To help achieve this goal attendees are asked to bring their own reusable cup and/or mug from home.
