White Settlement Community Services is leading an initiative to discourage pouring kitchen grease down drains, a practice that often leads to clogged city pipes, sewer overflows, and other costly issues.
Their solution, the Holiday Grease Roundup, runs from November 13 to January 12, providing a responsible way to dispose of kitchen grease. Partnering with the North Central Texas Council of Governments, they’ve set up convenient drop-off sites to make participation easy.
Instead of waste, the collected grease is repurposed into biodiesel and biogas, turning yesterday’s leftovers into tomorrow’s clean energy. This effort not only prevents pollution but also promotes sustainability and cleaner fuel production.
The Roundup encourages the community to join in, helping keep drains clear and supporting a greener, more responsible future. "Let’s team up and keep our community flowing smoothly," urges the White Settlement Community Services, reflecting a commitment to shared responsibility for a cleaner environment.
