Meet New AOR Member - Asami Tanimoto

What is your name?
Asami Tanimoto

Where do you work and what do you do?
The Recycling Partnership

Tell us how you embrace recycling/sustainability into your home or workplace?
It's what I do! I do everything within my power to create less waste, usually by using reusables. For example, I love making my own yogurt using local milk from reusable glass bottles. I don't end up with yogurt tubs or milk cartons.

What motivates you to recycle and live sustainably?
It's just the way I grew up. It pains me to see perfectly good materials tossed in the trash.

If you were an animal, which one would you be and why?
Maybe a caracal? Wild cats are so majestic.

How did you learn about AOR?
Through my colleagues at The Recycling Partnership and the wonderful Amy Roth.
