A brief description of the innovative policy, practice, program, or outcome :

Miami University, through the Lean process improvement method, has piloted three innovative advances in solid waste collection on campus: pizza box compost collection in residence halls; collection of both landfill (trash) and compostable materials in outdoor bins that formerly collected just trash; and replacement of office trash cans and liners with smaller, linerless handbaskets as an option of a way to collect and transport personal waste to resource recovery areas.
