"I learned that Kookoo Restaurant joined the To Go Green initiative, participating in a pilot that supplies reusable takeout containers for a minimal per-use fee to reduce waste and help restaurants save compared with bio-based or compostable packaging. The model asks diners to return containers to any participating location, while the founders monitor stock at each restaurant and provide additional boxes as needed; Uber currently manages the courier side and the entrepreneurs plan to integrate the containers into broader delivery platforms later." - Emily Venezky
