Weekly Update for Zero Waste

Posted by Marya Ryan on October 15, 2017

Hi Tracy—

Here are my zero-waste updates from this past week: 

  • Morgan, Micah, Colin Tirakian, Joe Pickowitz, and I met to discuss EPS recycling. For now, we’ll direct interested departments to take materials to the Dart Container drop-off location in Urbana, which they can do free of charge. They will need to arrange their own transport of materials. With the densifier now at ISTC, we’ll investigate whether ISTC can become the drop-off location. 
  • I updated the iCAP page on EPS recycling.
  • I drafted an email to send to Styrecycle participants. It is now with Morgan for review. She is obtaining a list of participants to whom we’ll send it.

Best regards,
Marya Ryan
