Started in 2009, Green Team Roundtables are peer-to-peer networking meetings organized by WasteCap Nebraska for business owners, managers, green team members and individuals interested in developing their knowledge in sustainable business practices. Roundtables begin with networking and introductions, followed by a presentation from the host or sponsor. Lunch is provided by a local restaurant or catering firm, with care being taken to reduce environmental impacts.
