Introduction: North American society is often criticised as being a “throw away” society, and perhaps that criticism is accurate (Cahan, 2008). We discard 11 to 14 billion tons of waste each year, according to the US Environmental Protection Agency. Of this sum, 180 million tons comes from households and businesses, areas where recycling efforts could make a difference (Hollusha, 2010). According to a survey conducted by Decima Research, 73 percent of North American companies have waste reduction programmes (Schneider, 2008). Although some progress has been made, there is still a problem. For example, the annual volume of discarded plastic packaging in North America is eight billion tons—enough to produce 118 million plastic park benches yearly (Joldine, 2009). Despite many recycling programmes and initiatives, most of our rubbish finds its way to landfill sites. With an ever-increasing volume of waste, estimates show that 80 percent of North America’s landfills will be full by the year 2015 (de Blanc, 2009). To combat the growing waste disposal problem, some states and provinces are trying to pass legislation aimed at increasing recycling. Many North American communities have enacted regulations requiring residents to separate bottles, cans, and newspapers so that they may be recycled (Schneider, 1999). Other means considered to reduce waste include tax incentives, packaging mandates, and outright product bans (Hollusha, 2010). All levels of government are trying both voluntary and mandatory means of Name: Marshall Gomes Student Number: 802977247 / Assessment: BSBADM503: Assessment 2

Conclusions: Based on the findings of the recycling survey of members of the West Coast College campus community, we draw the following conclusions. 1. Most members of the campus community are already recycling at home or at work. 2. Over half of the respondents recycle aluminium and paper on a regular basis; most recycle glass and plastic to some degree. 3. Most of the surveyed individuals expressed a willingness to participate in a recycling programme. Many, however, seem unwilling to travel very far to participate; 42 percent would like more recycling bins to be located inside the cafeteria. 4. Awareness and use of the current campus recycling programme are low. Only a little over a third of the respondents knew of any recycling bin locations on campus, and only a fifth had actually used them. 5. Respondents considered the locations of the campus bins inconvenient. This perceived inconvenience was given as the principal reason for not participating in the campus recycling programme. Recommendations: After considering the findings and conclusions of this study, we offer the following recommendations in an effort to improve the operations and success of the West Coast recycling programme. 1. Increase on-campus awareness and visibility by designing an eye-catching logo for use in promotions. 2. Enhance comprehension of recycling procedures by teaching users how to recycle. Use posters to explain the recycling programme and to inform users of recycling bin locations. Label each bin clearly as to what materials may be deposited. 3. Add bins in several new locations, and particularly more in the food service and vending machine areas. Name: Marshall Gomes Student Number: 802977247 / Assessment: BSBADM503: Assessment 2

4. Recruit student leaders to promote participation in the recycling programme. These students should give educational talks to classes and other campus groups. 5. Develop an incentive programme for student organisations. Offer incentives for meeting OAS recycling goals. On-campus groups could compete in recycling drives designed to raise money for the group, the college, or a charity. Money from the proceeds of the recycling programme could be used to fund the incentive programme.
