The article from BYU Daily Universe highlights how BYU turned campus food waste into compost for landscaping (mulch) used to maintain campus grounds. Food waste would go to recycling facilities. The program is led by Bill Rudy, manager of BYU Recycling, and it emphasizes the value of recycling, reduces landfill waste, and promotes sustainability in the community. However, the program relies on the community’s participation, which can be inconsistent. More education on the topic and more outreach can increase awareness as well as engagement.
