This initiative led by Hannah K. Morgan explores advanced composting systems on campus, focusing on the collaboration between students, faculty, and various offices to implement a sustainable composting program. The $O2 Compost Micro-Bin Kit and other materials aim to minimize landfill waste and educate the student body on sustainability. By engaging students in hands-on composting activities, the program fosters empowerment and activism, while diversifying waste disposal options and reducing disposal costs associated with landfill tipping fees.
