When did you start volunteering with the Waste Watchers?<\/strong><\/p>\n

October 2014<\/p>\n

What has been your favorite project or event that the Waste Watchers have been involved in?<\/strong><\/p>\n

“Spin to Win” and “Got a Mug? Get FREE Coffee!”<\/p>\n

What keeps you volunteering with the Waste Watchers?<\/strong><\/p>\n

I really like what they are centered around (waste reduction) and I like that they are so involved on campus. There is always something going on, some kind of campaign or event or competition and it’s all for a good cause. It feels good to volunteer some of my time to help educate my community in creating a healthier planet.<\/p>\n

What would you like to see the Waste Watchers do in the future?<\/strong><\/p>\n

I would love for them to find a way to get involved in sporting events. I know it’s fairly difficult but it would be amazing outreach. Hopefully something can work out in the future.<\/p>\n

What is one way you reduce waste in your everyday life?<\/strong><\/p>\n

I try to use resuable items as much as I can. I bring my own cup for to-go drinks and I always refuse a bag – plastic or not. I also just started regularly composting and that takes away a lot of waste.<\/p>\n
