Chatham boasts a composting program in its dining facilities that gathers pre–and post-consumer materials, including takeout containers. Waste fat is sent to a regional biodiesel plant. The school–wide single–stream recycling program is successful and includes students and administration. The Waste Working Group of Chatham's Climate Committee promotes and advertises the reduction efforts at Chatham.
