Weigh the Waste is an interactive educational campaign and campus sustainability initiative designed to measure and reduce post-consumer food waste—the food left on our plates after dining.
To help bring this initiative to life, the Office of Sustainability is partnering with Bon Appétit to host "Weigh the Waste Week" next week. The program will take place Monday through Friday in the Great Room during the peak lunch hour from 11:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m.
This campaign helps make our collective environmental impact visible by demonstrating how quickly small amounts of food waste add up over a short period. On your way to the dish return next week, we invite you to stop by one of our Weigh the Waste tables to participate.
While participation is completely voluntary, we highly encourage everyone to stop by, see the results, and join the conversation about creating a more sustainable campus.
