Be a Zero Hero.
About Us
The Be a Zero Hero Initiative is a student-led environmental protection project with the mission of reducing plastic bag and film waste.
The project began on January 1, 2023 in Montgomery County, Maryland, but has since expanded across the DMV. We perform public outreach events to educate our communties about plastic film recycling, and set up recycling bins to make the process more accessible.
