Data source(s) and notes about the submission:
All of the values above are for Calendar Year 2010.
The total dollars spent on janitorial supplies is an estimate provided by Bob Swanson- UO Property Coordinator. A big reason for the gap between green and total clearning supply purchases is possibly that many of the purchases accounted for include more than just "cleaning products" and also include other janitorial products for which there is no Green Seal/EcoLogo alternative. We will work on finding a more refined way to track these purchases in the future.
UO Facilities Services purchases nearly all Green Seal certified cleaning products, as does UO Housing. They are working on a written policy to address this. In Athletics, nearly all of the paper, soap and chemical purchases are either EcoLogo or Green Seal Certified.
The totals above, except for the total purchases, do not include the EMU.
