Does campus dining operations provide reusable containers for to-go food that are returned for cleaning and reuse?:
A brief description of the reusable to-go container program:
“To Go” food containers are widely used on campus, and will become more sustainable in the Fall of 2013 through the support of a Green Fund grant to Penn Hospitality Services and Bon Appétit. These funds were used to purchase re-usable eco-containers for students who use the residential dining halls in 1920 Commons, English House and Hill. The microwave-safe, anti-microbial clamshell containers can be used to take out food and then be returned at the next visit. At the end of their usable life, the containers can be recycled.
