This reduction displays a remarkable decrease from the previous number of 61.55 tons (recyclable: 3.2659, biodegradable: 9.7192, non-biodegradable: 48.5649) from the same comparative period last year, reflecting a decrease of about 43% revealing better management in administering campus food waste sustainability initiatives aimed at minimizing food and other biodegradable waste.
