Morgan Hartman sorts waste in an Andersen Hall classroom. The waste audit was performed on trash saved by the custodians in Andersen Hall. After spreading out a tarp to sort the trash on, the bag is weighed and then dumped for sorting. Of the 11.9 pounds of trash in this bag, 38% was landfill material, 48% was compostable and 14% was recyclable. October 26, 2020. Photo by Craig Chandler / University Communication.
