At the University of California, Irvine, students, faculty, and staff are encouraged to utilize reusable products and to recycle materials in order to reduce and divert campus waste from landfills. Campus programs educate our community about recyclable materials, sustainable purchasing options, and proper methods of hazardous waste disposal.
