As part of a week-long celebration of Earth Day at Bristol Community college, Mass. Water Watch volunteer conducted a waste audit of the trash at the college. Water Watch volunteers opened and sifted through more than 60 bags of BCC trash outside G Building to audit the college’s potential recycling capacities. The information collected from the audit will be used to recommend the types of recycling containers that should be placed throughout the campus. Click here to see the Herald News article.
