UAF is doing many things to reduce, reuse and recycle. A campuswide mixed paper and cardboard recycling program started on September 30, 2010; recycling of aluminum, glass and tin cans was added later. UAF is no longer talking about waste stream; we are talking about resource stream.

Additional information is online about what you can recycle and other recycling FAQs.

The UAF Office of Sustainability invites everyone on campus to get involved.
