| Abstract/Contents: | Profiles Dairy Creek Golf Club in San Luis Obispo, California, highlighting it as a "zero-waste" facility in which all materials are recycled and virtually no waste is sent to landfills. Explains that "the overall goal of the concept is to eliminate solid waste, toxics, and emissions and change our focus to looking at the byproducts generated in our daily lives as potential resources." Outlines various materials used at Dairy Creek as a part of this process, including composting food and greens, recycling, and reusing various waste byproducts. Adds that the use of recycled water, wind energy, and solar energy are other features of the sustainable course. Concludes that "if Dairy Creek is successful in getting to zero with is waste management program, the golf club will be a hero in the community and a wonderful example and model for other golf courses." |
