Welcome to the University of Oregon Campus Zero Waste Program. The Program was founded by students in 1991 and continues to be staffed by mostly student employees. In 2012, the Program took a leap to become the Campus Zero Waste Program. As the program began with recycling it has evolved to include reuse, waste reduction, composting and zero waste events. Thus, the Program has taken on a new path of zero waste.

Thanks for thinking zero waste and enjoy this website. Please let us know if you have any suggestions or comments:

Campus Zero Waste Program needs volunteers!

The ASUO Spring Street Faire and Willamette Valley Music Festival are coming up May 8-11,
and the Campus Zero Waste Program can use your help to make it a zero waste event.
Last fall, with the help of volunteers, we kept 85% of waste out of the landfill,
with your help, we hope to do even better this spring!

Volunteer opportunities are available at the Street Faire from May 8-11, 10:00am to 5:00pm,
and at the Willamette Valley Music Festival Sat. May 11, 5:00pm to midnight.
