Today is National Public Lands Day, the nation's largest single-day volunteer event dedicated to the conservation and enjoyment of public lands. Volunteers across the country come together to maintain trails, clean up parks, and care for the natural spaces we all share. ♻️

None of the work we do at Circular Indiana would be possible without our sponsors. A huge thank you to Sibelco for helping make our conference happen!

Sustainability isn't a solo effort, and it shouldn't be. When your organization joins Circular Indiana, you become part of a statewide community working together to reduce waste, rethink resources, and build a more resilient economy.

No matter where your organization is on its sustainability journey, there's a place for you here.

Our Board President Pamela Francis and Board Member Ken Miller joined Sean Grady on The Environmental Transformation Podcast to talk about building Indiana's circular economy!

Their conversation covered battery EPR and safer collection, AI-powered recycling, designing buildings for reuse instead of the landfill, and keeping materials in use with Indiana manufacturers.

Meet Kelly Geckler, Vice Chair of the Circular Indiana Associate Board and an Environmental and Sustainability professional at Envita Solutions. Kelly believes it is critical to have a statewide organization that can advocate and educate Indiana citizens on why the circular economy is needed, for the environmental and economic health of our state and for future generations.

At Envita, Kelly works directly with customers to support their sustainability and landfill diversion goals, finding circular solutions that keep materials out of landfills. She also leads the employee volunteer sustainability committee, promoting initiatives like recycling, composting, litter cleanups, and pollinator garden planting across the organization.

At home, Kelly walks the talk by composting, recycling, supporting pollinators in her garden, shopping at a local refillery, driving a hybrid, and living in a geothermally heated and cooled home.

We are grateful to have Kelly's sustainable expertise on the Circular Indiana Associate Board!
