UC Dining Services Celebrates Earth Day

In celebration of Earth Day (April 22), UC's Dining Services organized several week-long programs. Each program is meant to reduce waste and energy use while also raising awareness within the student community.  This shows some great collaboration between the university and ARAMARK.

During next week, Dining Services will:

• Eliminate trays from two dining halls for one week (less food is wasted and more water and energy are conserved)
  
• Dim or turn off lights at the MarketPointe Dining Center
• Weigh the waste from lunch and dinner
• Highlight local and environmentally-friendly menu options
• Encourage that students purchase reusable, insulated mugs
• Provide tips for conservation and recycling
