Path Toward Zero Waste
The City of Los Angeles Harbor Department (LAHD) developed its own proprietary 2025 LAHD Zero Waste Plan in response to the City of Los Angeles’ 2019 Green New Deal and the Mayor’s Executive Directive No. 25 (L.A.’s Green New Deal - Leading by Example). The City of Los Angeles’ zero waste targets include increasing the landfill diversion rate to:
- 90% by 2025
- 95% by 2035
- 100% by 2050
Through this program, the Port will rethink the waste hierarchy, change the way it does business, and inspire proactive participation by staff, colleagues, tenants, and customers.
