RecycleMania Week 2

We’re still in the Top 20 nationally!  Though in Week 2 our recycling rate slipped a bit, look for a big jump in Week 3 due to a massive paper-shredding by our Business Office (thank you Mitch and Bill for sharing those numbers!).  If you have comments, suggestions, or “inspirational recycling stories” (!) please let us know.

If you want to see how BCC stacks up against other schools, here are the official Week 2 Results from RecycleMania:

First Week of RecycleMania!

The results are in for the first official week of RecycleMania – and BCC is currently #18 in the nation, out of 215 colleges and universities.  Our recycling rate is 54% (on our path to Zero Waste, our goal for this year is to reach a 55% recycling rate – every single item which gets reused, or finds its way to the right bin, will help us reach our goal).  Congratulations BCC, and keep it up!  See complete results for Week 1 here:
