SCU's Sustainability Strategic Plan has goals to reduce total campus waste and to reduce waste sent to landfills. Three objectives related to these goals are:
- Divert 90% of waste from landfills by 2020
- Reduce total waste per capita 5% by 2020, and 5% biannually thereafter
- Reduce food waste 10% by 2020, 20% by 2025
Each quarter, the Center for Sustainability conducts waste characterizations to determine the composition of our waste stream.
Please note, this inventory is updated quarterly.
