As the Monitor of the New Enchantment, during our 19th Annual Campout, I worked toward some specific things we could all do to lighten our ecological footprint and invited campers to participate in a “Zero Waste Campout Initiative”. We raised the bar and challenged ourselves to drastically reduce, reuse, recycle, and rethink how we camp, so we would have less trash into our landfills during our few days of camping. The end result was an 80% decrease in landfill trash. We also had a educational talk about edible plants and nature’s abundance.
