庭院废弃物
UNC grounds workers collect yard waste, such as branches, twigs and leaves. 分支机构 and tree limbs are fed into a Vermeer wood-chipper, generating mulch for the university 景观. Over the past four years UNC has recycled approximately 2500 cubic yards 堆场废物. Of the recycled waste, a total of 1740 cubic yards was collected after the early snowstorm of October 26 to 27, 2011.
Since2008, the University has successfully diverted nearly 3000 cubic yards of waste from Colorado landfills, resulting in high quality composts, mulches, and other recycled materials, produced by A-I Organics. 的se products are available to the 景观 industry and Colorado citizens for landscaping and soil amendment purposes. 大学 also receives a significant discount on its products due to our contribution of raw materials, which include tree and shrub prunings, leaves, discarded sod, weeds, branches, grass clippings, and other compostable yard waste.
