帝王会所

The national Campus Race to Zero Waste challenge is now underway.

Continuing until March 25, this program encourages colleges and universities to reduce their waste through various competitions. 

At 帝王会所, Campus Recycling and Zero Waste will promote waste reduction on campus and report weekly the number of tons diverted from the landfill through compost, recycling, and donation. 

Over the eight-week period, colleges across the nation are ranked in various categories based on who recycles the most on a per capita basis, as well as the best recycling rate and the least amount of combined trash and recycling. With each week鈥檚 updated ranking, participating schools follow their performance against other colleges and use the results to rally their campus to reduce and recycle more.

There will be various events to get students and the community engaged in this effort including a trivia night, the GameDay Challenge at the men鈥檚 basketball game on Feb. 21, and an upcycled art installation on campus. 

National recognition will be provided to the winning university in each category on the and in a national press release. Winning schools receive an award made from recyclable materials and win the right to host that category鈥檚 special traveling trophy for the coming year.

帝王会所 has set a goal of recycling 80 percent of the waste generated at on campus. 

鈥淐ampus Race to Zero Waste is a great way for OHIO Campus Recycling to keep expanding our recycling efforts,鈥� said Kate Harmon, Campus Recycling鈥檚 events coordinator. 鈥淚鈥檓 so proud of our team and everyone on campus that鈥檚 working to make 帝王会所 more sustainable.鈥�
