Sustainability
has become a hot topic on college and university campuses. Students, faculty, and staff are calling upon their school administrators to make policy changes that foster environmental stewardship. Across the country, sustainability is being fused into curriculums and campus operations.
Florida State University is no different. Please explore this site to learn how FSU is moving towards becoming a more sustainable campus and how you can get involved.
RecycleMania is a friendly 10-week competition for college and university recycling programs to promote waste reduction activities to their campus communities.
With each week’s reports and rankings, participating schools watch how their results fluctuate against other schools and use this to rally their campus communities to reduce and recycle more.
*** Do your part & help us out!***
There are recycling bins ALL OVER campus - along major walkways and high traffic areas, the Union, residence halls, classroom buildings. Please be very aware of what you're throwing away and what bin it's going in to.
We are competing for the Gorilla Prize for larger schools that recycle the highest gross tonnage of combined paper, cardboard and bottle and cans, regardless of campus population.
