Earlier this month, I led an intense day-long event. Eleven Darden students came together to sort through about 460 pounds of trash. What were we thinking--digging through garbage?
Well, I think Darden needs to be more conscious about what it is sending to the landfill and do a better job recycling. The first step is recognizing that we have a problem, measuring the extent of the problem (we found about 67% recyclables by volume and 54% by weight), and sharing the results so we can start to do something about it.
I didn't blog about the event itself, but my friend and classmate Hugh Liang did. Check it out:
