Zero Waste Pilot Compost Program Achieves Big 10 Results
OVERVIEW Purdue University and partners wanted to pilot a zero waste compost program as proof of concept in an athletic venue. Specifically, the program involved working in the Ross-Ade Stadium South End Zone Patio area throughout the 2014 Purdue Boilermakers football season. The patio is a new venue for 1,500 season ticket holders and VIP card members. Those who have a pass are allowed to ‘tailgate’ within the patio area during the game.
