Smart waste report sets out how to realise the circular economy

Rubicon has released its inaugural environmental, social and governance report that sets out technology-based sustainability solutions to reduce emissions, eliminate waste, promote recycling, and bring a circular economy to reality. Titled Toward a Future Without Waste, the report details sustainability solutions based on the technology company’s experiences of delivering environmental results for customers.

As cities, and communities recover from Covid-19, using technology to become more sustainable, more fiscally responsible, and less wasteful is an imperative for the months and years ahead, according to Rubicon, which provides a suite of waste, recycling and smart city solutions. This report aims to present a roadmap for how to accomplish those goals. It explores everything from educating customers on more effective recycling, to empowering smaller haulers to reduce landfill use while boosting their businesses, to building a data-driven digital platform to help governments optimise the management of their waste streams.

“For a decade, we have been pursuing technology-based solutions to the serious waste problems facing our country and the world,” said Nate Morris, founder and CEO, Rubicon. He added: “The path forward in eliminating waste, reducing emissions, making companies more efficient, and saving taxpayer money, comes directly from the results we have delivered for customers.
