Cans, CDs and Composting

Just a quick, routine update on new developments with things coming along nicely for recycling and waste management on campus...

- The nice people at Ceredigion County Council have donated more wheeled aluminum/tin can deposit banks to be placed around campus, making it ever-easier for staff and students...

- There'll be a dedicated drop-off bin in the Hugh Owen library to recycle CDs and DVDs (including their packaging) safely and securely, so keep an eye out for this...

- A couple of funding bids are being put in by House Services to the Welsh Assembly Government's public sector waste disposal funding stream, to hopefully introduce separate recycling sack holders in residences and a kitchen composter. Even if these bids aren't successful they are a good sign of the thinking going on towards waste reduction!
