Dive Brief:
- The University of Central Florida has formed an agreement with Republic Services to implement a single-stream recycling system. Students will now be able to discard all types of recyclables into one bin.
- Bins will be placed in campus areas where the greatest need for recycling is determined to be.
- Glass had not been able to be recycled on campus due to the high costs of collection stemming from the high costs of safety protocols. Glass will now be collected when the program begins.
Dive Insight:
The program is expected to get underway within the next few months.
