All colleges and universities generate large volumes of waste that
can be diverted, as the Columbia University example shows, but not all
possess the resources to develop solutions or the campus culture to
support them. The Post-Landfill Action Network (PLAN) is a nonprofit
organization that works with college and university students and staff
to introduce zero waste projects on-site, such as managing year-end
move-out programs, opening free stores and banning single-use plastics
and ting campaigns for reusable to-go containers in cafeterias. See Case Study here.
