California \u2013 Inter-Agency Cooperation<\/a><\/h3>\r\n
As of 2018, the state of California reported a 65 percent diversion rate for all materials and more than 140,000 green jobs in its recycling sector. This success is attributable to California's 1989 Integrated Waste Management Act and the state's more recent\u00a0efforts to increase organics recycling through the California Department of Resources Recycling and Recovery (CalRecycle), a state agency that coordinates the state's multiple waste and recycling management programs.\u2026 Leer m\u00e1s<\/a><\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n

These laws sought to further increase the state's organic waste diversion infrastructure by both incentivizing businesses and mandating state agencies to create mutually shared regulations and goals for organic waste recycling. ...
