Clarkson Commits! Reduce and Separate Solid Waste

The Issue

We throw away hundreds of thousands of dollars each year purchasing disposables and paying for consumer waste to be trucked away. The majority of what we send to a landfill can be recycled or composted but as a community we don't know how to reduce our waste and separate our garbage correctly. Our goal is to have the majority of the Clarkson campus fill out this form as a commitment that they will separate their garbage correctly. We will reach a "tipping point" and will create a new, responsible trend on campus.
