Auburn promotes and competes in game day recycling
Auburn University is taking part of the Game Day Recycling Challenge, where on game days Auburn competes with approximately 100 universities nationwide to have the highest recycling rate. The competing schools track the quantity of waste and recycling produced and the two national winners are recognized by the total amount recycled, composted and donated or by the diversion rate, which is the percentage of waste diverted from disposal. “Recycling is a wonderful program for our environment,” Vic Walker, manager of the Waste Reduction and Recycling Department, said.
