This year’s RecycleMania competition kicks off Sunday, February 2, 2020. RecycleMania is a friendly recycling competition that takes place nationwide and serves as a benchmarking tool for measuring and improving efforts in waste reduction. Nova Southeastern University is one of more than 300 colleges and universities competing.
The Office of Facilities Management and “Green Sharks” Sustainability Club want to remind you that recycling bins are located all over campus, so let’s work on filling them up! Plus, there will be many fun events taking place during the eight weeks of competition to help with recycling efforts. See below for a calendar of events.
Although the competition runs from February 2 – March 28, NSU’s goal is to set the standard for stewardship of our precious natural resources. Recycling is one of the paths to this success.
