Colorado Product Stewardship Council
The Colorado Product Stewardship Council (CoPSC) was formed in July 2010 to promote and advocate for product stewardship in Colorado. We are a diverse group of interested parties representing local governments, non-profits organizations, large and small businesses, including recyclers and waste hauling companies, schools, universities, and individuals.
Council Mission
The Council works to integrate the principles of product stewardship into the policy and economic structures of Colorado’s waste management system in order to:
- Promote waste minimization, reuse, recycling, and sustainable recovery
- Drive improvements in product design that promote environmental sustainability
- Increase convenience and accessibility to recycling and other waste diversion services
- Support local, responsible recycling solutions
- Achieve economic benefits through local economic development and job creation
- Attain higher environmental benefits and prevent pollution through increased waste diversion and less landfill disposal
- Reduce public costs associated with waste collection and disposal, recycling, and household hazardous waste management
