Does the institution have a postconsumer food waste composting program?:
A brief description of the postconsumer food waste composting program:
GW composts at designated events, usually in collaboration with the Office of Sustainability. At roughly ten events per year composting is available. These include large catered events and sporting concessions.
As part of GW's Ecosystems Enhancement Strategy, GW began piloting post-consumer composting at the Pelham Commons dining facility in the spring semester of 2013. GW is collaborating with Sodexo and student organizations to provide the necessary training and education to ensure that staff and students are effectively composting. GW will be piloting post-consumer composting on the main campus, most likely in the Marvin Center in fall semester of 2013.
