Green Campus Programs
Energize everyone on campus to make campus life more sustainable.
Inspire, energize, and connect everyone on campus to the cause of sustainability. The Green Campus programs below are just a few of the ways we can help you motivate and mobilize students, faculty and administrators to promote a groundswell of environmental advocacy.
- Green move in and move out - “Reduce, reuse, and recycle” are messages worth amplifying, especially at each semester’s beginning and end. Rely on Waste Management to put the entire program together for your school, including setting up receptacles, organizing special events, and involving local charitable organizations.
- Green student living - We can work with you to understand the on-campus habits of your students and create programs to advance environmentally sustainable lifestyles from the dorms to the dining halls and beyond..
- Internship programs - With positions on our sustainability team, students get ground-level experience in seeing how diversion and waste-stream management can lead to programs like zero landfill. Plus, they get invaluable experience working with North America’s leading provider of comprehensive waste management services.
- Campus Waste Watch - Because our drivers have regular routes on your campus and surrounding areas, they know right away when something is out of the ordinary. Through Campus Waste Watch, we partner with campus security and local law enforcement agencies to serve as extra eyes and ears to report incidents.
- Green event pack - From recycling containers to recycling kiosks, solar-powered compactors, and other portable amenities, we can set up for an eco-friendly event. And when it’s over, we can pick up and recycle or compost the waste, with little going to landfill.
- Grant research - Waste Management will help you identify and apply for the funding sources available to help your institution implement sustainability programs.
