WASTE AUDIT

 

To make waste issues tangible, we will carry out a comprehensive waste audit in the Shatner building. The objectives are to measure the volume and weight of the garbage, recyclables, and compost waste generated, and the amount of recoverable waste that is actually thrown out. Our findings will help us identify the sources of waste and the status of waste management for the SSMU.

 

You guessed it, we need your help! Participating in this waste audit is a great learning opportunity. You will get to work in a team with your fellow school-mates. We will provide a free meal n' music each day for our trusty volunteers. We will meet at Gert's on Tuesday Oct. 17 ^th and Thursday Oct. 19^th at 5:30 for a prep meeting and follow through with the auditing.

Don't let this promising project go to waste without your help.

 

Email us your intents and availabilities now!
