Waste

GreenCity’s goal is to be zero waste with a minimum diversion of 90%.  

While Arlington County, Virginia has a goal of 90% diversion by 2038, GreenCity intends to be at the forefront for reaching this goal sooner. 

Waste Strategies will address life-cycle management, from construction through occupancy.

Non-Organic Waste: 

• Area-wide multi-bin collection for sorting, separation and recycling

• Programs for electronic and bulky waste 

• Integrated smart bin technology

Organic Waste and Composting:

• Organic waste treated on-site, especially for Arena uses, through anaerobic digestion for biogas production, or composting to enhance the landscape and potential food production

Waste Management: 

• GreenCity will plan for future AV waste collection systems for both non-organic and organic waste
