Share What Goes Where

Create effective systems

Make waste reduction a visible part of your school community. Create clear and colourful signage to let students know what to put where and help build everyday habits.

Tips:

• Improve waste-sorting practices by posting signage directly above paired waste and recycling bins.
• Have the EcoTeam research what items can be recycled, and share that information in clear signage and announcements.
• Make 3-D signs with examples of recyclable items – it’s both practical and creative.
• Launch your waste-reduction efforts with a Recycling Relay, where students race to put waste items in the correct bin.
