Please help with Project Clean Plate!!
We are off to a great start at The 459 Commons with our waste reduction effort. You can click here to see our goal with Project Clean Plate which is to reduce our waste by 20%. For every 5% reduction we achieve, LSU Dining will make a donation to the Baton Rouge Food Bank just in time for Thanksgiving!
Basically the goal is to reduce waste by bringing back clean plates! Students can still eat as much as they want, but they are encouraged to take only what they will eat. That is all there is to it!
Our first week's benchmark (10/5) was 768 pounds. Students have already stepped up to the challenge judging by our second week!
10/12 Week - Total waste was 719 pounds. That is already a 6.4% reduction!! We are well on our way to reaching 614 pounds!!
10/19 Week - Total waste was 659 pounds. Only 45 more pounds to go to reach our goal!!
10/26 Week - Total waste was 628 pounds. Almost there!!
