Zero waste Honda factories growing in number

Zero waste Honda factories growing in number

The next time you purchase a vehicle, make sure that it boasts great mileage in addition to being a hybrid mode of transport (or an all electric one if you want to go green all the way), in addition to making sure its factories follow the green path as well. You won't go wrong with Honda though, as the Japanese vehicle giant has made 10 of their facilities zero waste. Basically, they managed to trim 63 pounds of trash generated from each car made to just 1.8 pounds – now how did they manage to do it. Combined, Honda's 14 North American facilities send less than one-half of one percent of all operating waste to landfills.
