"Don't Feed the Landfills" Initiative eliminates 22 million pounds of waste from US national parks through recycling, composting, and education since 2015.

Subaru, NPCA, NPS, and NPF's "Don't Feed the Landfills" Initiative has successfully eliminated 22 million pounds of waste from US national parks through recycling, composting, and educational programs since 2015. The project, which initially focused on Denali, Grand Teton, and Yosemite National Parks, has expanded to include 60 park partners and has reduced waste sent to landfills by half in pilot parks. The initiative has also reduced single-use plastics in the parks, with plans to expand these sustainable practices to other national parks.
