3/6 - Waste Audit: Dr. Laura Keller’s Living Green Theory to Action class (IFS 3044) will be conducting a waste audit on campus outside Mendenhall A at 1pm. They will sort through FSU recycle and landfill bins to determine the quantity of waste that is recyclable. This audit will show contamination of both the landfill and recycle bins. 

3/8 - Mug Shots: If we catch you using your reusable coffee mug on campus from 10-11am, we're going to give you a free coffee coupon.

3/21 - Pop-Up Tabling: We'll be tabling at the Integration Statue from 12-2:30pm. Ask us about recycling at FSU!

Keep checking back for more events in February and March.

what is recyclemania

RecycleMania is "a friendly competition and benchmarking tool for college and university recycling programs to promote waste reduction activities to their campus communities. Over an 8-week period each spring, colleges across the United States and Canada report the amount of recycling and trash collected each week and are in turn ranked in various categories based on who recycles the most on a per capita basis, as well as which schools have the best recycling rate as a percentage of total waste and which schools generate the least amount of combined trash and recycling.  With each week’s updated ranking, participating schools follow their performance against other colleges and use the results to rally their campus to reduce and recycle more."
