When expanding or modifying waste reduction programs, it is critical to understand what materials comprise your waste stream. Schools can utilize waste audits to help analyze the components of the waste stream and improve their recycling, reuse, and waste prevention efforts. This webinar will feature a presentation from The University of California, Davis (UC-Davis) about a case study of their audits of campus waste streams and subsequent improvements to their waste reduction efforts. Additionally, Busch Systems will present the Resource Center, a free analytics software tool that can help you perform waste audits.
