Data source(s) and notes about the submission:
Carleton made a commitment to purchase green cleaning products and compostable materials and a full list is included in the link below.
Included in Janitorial Paper Products is the Compostables Store orders, where campus departments can purchase smaller quantities of compostable plates, forks, cups, etc. at a bulk rate. This is reimbursed through a department charge.
For FY17, we counted additional janitorial products like vacuum cleaner bags and trash bags but limited to paper products for FY18.
