A brief description of the post-consumer food waste composting program:
Bon Appétit meets the criteria for this credit at all Duke University locations. Dynamic signage from the “Taste Don’t Waste” initiative instructs customers to leave all food waste and napkins on their plates when sending them to the dish room. Once in the dish room, all post-consumer food waste is composted. An estimate of about 90% of all post-consumer food waste gets composted. In addition, all garbage cans have been removed from the "All you Care to Eat" facility during these meal periods to deter customers from using them for compostable items.
