Established last year, the MIT
Working Group Recycling Task Group (WGR) promotes recycling
campus-wide.
A Task Group of the Working Group on Support Staff Issues (WGSSI),
WGR acts as a liaison between WGSSI members, the Environmental Programs
Task Force (EPTF), and Share A Vital Earth (SAVE).
In the words of Laura Moses, one of its founders, WGR's "major
accomplishment last year was the coordination and distribution of
more than 200 recycling bins to offices, labs, conference rooms,
and kitchens on campus."
WGR also worked closely with MIT Real Estate to initiate and expand
recycling efforts in leased buildings. It supported the efforts
of SAVE to encourage recycling in dormitories and other residences.
This year WGR and SAVE will cooperate in trying to increase recycling
rates at MIT Campus Dining facilities.
