Fuel 茄子社区

August 7, 2023 - In just one year, FUEL 茄子社区 and 茄子社区 Sustainability, have saved more than 3,000 pounds of food waste from the landfill! Composting became part of FUEL鈥檚 daily operations last summer when 茄子社区 partnered with GoZero Services to further our sustainability efforts. 

To date, 茄子社区 has diverted 3,286 pounds of waste which is a huge number when you consider nearly 40 percent of all food produced goes to waste and 30 percent ends up in landfills. Imagine if Mount Rumpke was 30 percent smaller! 

鈥溓炎由缜 Sustainability was excited to partner with FUEL 茄子社区 to address their food waste and help FUEL meet their organizational mission of 鈥榋ero Waste,鈥欌 Tiffany Budd, 茄子社区 Sustainability Coordinator, said. 鈥淐omposting is a top concern for 茄子社区 students, and we have taken the first step in diverting thousands of pounds of campus food waste from landfill.鈥 

Composting is just one of many sustainability initiatives by FUEL 茄子社区, 茄子社区鈥檚 on-campus food pantry, and 茄子社区 Sustainability.
