    Heidi,

    I've included some leads for you to pursue on Zero Waste businesses
    below. I also have a 66 page document with lots of background info on
    different companies we consider to be zero waste companies, even though
    they may not have adopted that goal. This is a general background document
    on a whole variety of ZW info, that includes the ZW businesses info in
    it. If you would like me to email that to you, please let me know.

    Hope this helps!

    Gary Liss
