Academic Year 2010-2011
Students for Sustainable Living - Recycling and Waste Management Team
The Recycling and Waste Management group has great things planned for the coming year. Although Duke has a recycling program, many recyclable items still end up in the trash. We have several projects planned for the coming year.
1) Increase the volume of recyclables by educating undergrads on what can be recycled, including e-waste, batteries, and various types of plastic. We plan to launch a campaign with creative posters and handouts to advertise and increase awareness about recycling.
2) Increase participation in the Free Strore and set up a permanent location easily accessible to students.
3) Partner with other student groups (DSG and SESC) and the athletics department to increase recycling during basketball games and in the walk-up line.
