This week, we are tackling the dilemma of composting at IC. Did you know that there used to be composting in the dining halls, but the receptacles had to be removed because students were throwing their trash in the compost? At this weeks meeting we will learn about why composting is essential from the wonderful Alex. Then our very own Katie will break down why students at IC choose not to compost. We will follow these presentations with a discussion on how to encourage composting at IC and how to get composting receptacles back and better than ever!
