“Game Day Challenge: Encouraging collegiate recycling events during the 2013 collegiate football season, more than 85 schools across the nation took on the challenge to collect cans and bottles, cardboard, food scraps and more from the tailgate areas, stadium seating and concessions during at least one home game. Schools measured and reported their results along with game attendance for ranking in five categories. The winners of the 2013 Game Day Recycling Challenge were: * Waste Minimization Champion (least amount of waste generated per attendee) - Central Connecticut State University * Diversion Rate Champion (greatest combined recycling and composting rate)-Ohio State University * Greenhouse Gas Reduction Champion (greenhouse gas emissions prevented by diverting waste) - Franklin College * Recycling Champion (greatest recycling per attendee) - Franklin College * Organics Reduction Champion (greatest organics recovery per attendee) - University of Akron More than just a competition, Game Day Challenge was an opportunity for participating schools to demonstrate to students and team supporters that recycling and reducing waste are not activities limited to the home or office. Many participating schools deployed teams of volunteers to collect cans and bottles from pre-game tailgaters. Other schools engaged their mascots, set up zero-waste stations inside the stadiums to collect food scraps and more, or arranged for special recycling messages to be announced during the game. Still others used the opportunity to celebrate and raise awareness of America Recycles Day, which takes place on Nov. 15. Encouraging collegiate sporting events can save energy and reduce greenhouse gas emissions. During this year's competition, 6.4 million fans at 88 participating schools kept nearly 1.5 million pounds of game-day waste out of landfills, which prevented approximately 1,980 metric tons of carbon dioxide from being released. That's equivalent to removing 413 cars from the road for a year. The 2013 Game Day Challenge was administered by the College & University Recycling Coalition (CURC), Keep America Beautiful and RecycleMania, Inc., with support from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). Recycling @ Work: Just one year after Recycling @ Work launched, nearly 550 pledge partners have committed to increase recycling at their businesses, schools, universities and government entities. Part of Keep America Beautiful's joint Clinton Global Initiative with Alcoa Foundation, the Recycling @ Work program focuses on providing practical tools, resources, and best practices techniques to support office green teams in engaging with their colleagues to recycle more. To simplify the process, the Recycling @ Work website includes a 10-step action plan to help pledge partners plan their approach. Recycling at Work's pledge campaign objectives include: * Increase awareness and commitment level among businesses, government and institutional workplaces to increase recycling over two years for common office generated recyclables (e.g. paper, cardboard, beverage containers, batteries, electronics, and, optionally, food waste) * Engage employees to recycle more at work * Demonstrate support and momentum among the business community for increasing recycling at work * Report the results of the combined efforts, including the economic, environmental and social benefits of recycling at work Development of the program in 2014 will include a monthly e-newsletter and quarterly webinars for all pledge partners as well as other enhanced online resources, including an interactive Recycling Mythbusters presentation and a tool for making custom recycling bin signs. Furthermore, KAB will be working with its network to invite businesses and organizations across the country to become pledge partners. Keep America Beautiful will compile data and issue a comprehensive report in 2015, fulfilling its 2012 Clinton Global Initiative commitment made in partnership with Alcoa a”
