Sustainability Speaker Series: Campus Recycling 101
Description:
The University has an impressive waste diversion track record, diverting nearly half of its waste from landfills. In 2009, the campus expanded its recycling program to include virtually all plastics. Come meet Recycling Coordinator, Bill Guididas, and Associate Director for Building and Landscape Services, Sandy Dykes. The session will cover where our waste goes (trash, recycling, and compost) and how we can move our campus toward a waste diversion rate of 75% by 2013 (as outlined in the 2009 UM Climate Action Plan). Bring your questions and ideas!
