Recycle Mania 2004 is a friendly competition between seventeen top recycling programs in the United States (self described). Schools will compete to see who can collect the largest amount of recyclables from residence halls, on-campus apartments and dining halls in 10 weeks. Measurements will be reported on a weekly basis in pounds recycled per student (lbs/students) living on-campus. The Recycle Mania event will provide students with a fun, pro-active activity in waste-reduction. The university that recycles the most in the residence halls, on-campus apartments and dining halls (measured in pounds per student living on-campus) wins. A Recycle Mania trophy will be presented to the winner's.
The main goal of this event is to increase student awareness in campus recycling at the participant's school. In the end, this event will display that all seventeen universities have made achievements in recycling and waste reduction!
