UMBC Recyclmania Results Through February

Thank you and Keep up the Great Work!

http://www.recyclmania.org/

After launching Recyclmania on February 10th, the UMBC community really "picked up the pace" and has greatly increased our recycling pace. In fact, for the week ending February 17th we hit our high point and recycled over 20% of all waste!

So far in 2011, we have exceeded the percentage recycled in every week compared to 2010.

Below is the weekly summary:

Grand Champion, Per Capita Classic,
Waste Minimization Competitions and Gorilla Prize

Results shown are in US Pounds. To view measurements in Metric Kilograms, view the overall rankings on the Results page.
