Last week we reduced our “waste line” by a few tonnes… here’s how!
Last week was Waste Reduction Week and Canadian’s across the country took steps to cut waste and improve the environment. At Red River College we reduce waste every day, about 9 tonnes every month, but even we lost a few “extra pounds” this week.
During our fall e-waste round up, staff and students recycled more than 2.3 tonnes of electronic waste. Everything from home computers, printers, microwaves and overhead projectors were responsibly recycled.
