Recycling in the Union suffers from inconsistent implementation and must be retooled to set an example for the rest of RPI.
A group of interested students is forming to address the problem of inconsistency in the recycling system - both in the Union and across the campus. The project is quickly becoming a joint effort, headed by members of the Student Senate, Ecologic, and Engineers for a Sustainable World (ESW).
