Don't Waste

Started: 21/08/2023

Don't Waste is a campus initiative between Coca-Cola and the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign to reach Zero Waste targets.

Don't Waste is a collaborative initiative between Coca-Cola and the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign to reach Zero Waste targets.

Coca-Cola is partnering with the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign on a multi-year campaign to bring recycling awareness to the campus. The company is partnering with the Division of Intercollegiate Athletics, University Housing, the Illini Union, the Institute for Sustainability, Energy, and Environment, F&S, and others to keep bottles and cans out of the campus waste stream.

Among the many things Coca-Cola is providing are new portable side-by-side receptacles for recyclables and landfill waste. Look for these bins during the academic year at Illini games and major campus events! Help join this campaign and take simple, sustainable actions to help us reach zero waste goals on campus. Your individual, departmental, and unit efforts are making a difference!

“Don’t Waste” images for social media, digital signs, and newsletters are also available for download and use across campus.
