Racing To Zero is a quick-moving, upbeat documentary presenting new solutions to the global problem of waste. By simply substituting the word RESOURCE for the word GARBAGE, a culture can be transformed, and a new wealth of industries can emerge.

Three years ago, the mayor of San Francisco pledged to achieve zero waste by 2020. Racing to Zero tracks San Francisco’s waste stream diversion tactics and presents innovative new solutions to waste. This film documents a surprising, engaging, and inspiring race to zero.

Matter of Trust is a proud Presenting Partner and is producing a special edition of this DVD for the Paris COP21 Climate Conference. Executive Producers of Racing to Zero credits Patrice and Lisa Gautier, co-founders of Matter of Trust.

Christopher Beaver creator of Racing to Zero was interviewed by San Francisco Green Festival. The article can be found here.
