Ecology Action of Texas is an environmental services organization based in Austin, founded in 1969. It focuses on reducing landfill waste and increasing zero-waste awareness across Austin and the surrounding region. Historically, it helped develop grassroots recycling efforts that contributed to municipal programs like curbside recycling, the City of Austin Universal Recycling Ordinance, and the City of Austin Zero Waste Initiative. The organization pursues waste-to-resource processing and maintains ongoing educational engagement with area youth and the broader community. Its work targets local governments, schools, and residents seeking practical recycling solutions and expanded diversion across more challenging waste streams. The group operates as a small team focused on community-based environmental initiatives in the Austin region.
