Monitor, evaluate, and celebrate success
Conduct a waste audit and identify target items to reduce contamination. Approximately one-third of all recycling ends up in landfill due to contamination.
Tips:
- Based on the results of your waste audit, create a whole-school targeted campaign to make sure items that are causing contamination are ending up in the correct waste stream.
- Common items include single-use water bottles, disposable coffee cups, juice jammers, and yogurt cups.
