- W2113045280 abstract "Recycling presents a unique challenge for Iowa State University. It diverts 83 percent of its campus waste with the help of a Resource Recovery Plant that produces Refuse-Derived Fuel for a municipal, coal-fired power plant, effectively obviat ing a need for campus-wide recycling. This study was conducted because the university community has consistently shown strong interest in expanding recycling. Results showed that: 1.) the university recycles fewer commodities compared to peer institutions; 2.) beverage containers showed the greatest opportunity to expand current campus recycling efforts; 3.) closer proximity of recycling bins to newspaper stands, vending machines, and cafes, along with recycling education, could increase recycling; and 4.) students are willing to pay additional funds to expand recycling. Changes implemented based on study recommendations included a pilot recycling program for redeemable beverage containers at the Memorial Union in 2010 and a volunteer-driven program for glass, metal, plastic, and mixed paper in six campus buildings in 2012. The Live Green! website was upgraded and linked to social media; recycling bins were located on the campus map; recycling educational and signage efforts increased; use of refillable coffee mugs expanded; a dialog on recycling and diversion began with the city; and the Government of the Student Body formed a sustainability committee. The university community learned about their im pact on the university environment and realized the importance of implementing a program of Reduce, Reuse, and Recycle. The expansion of the university’s recycling program supports the city’s in-place waste diversion efforts." @default.
