Digging Deep Into Dumpster Data
We’re building our zero waste playbook—starting with the stats. By hand-sorting our trash, we’re uncovering strategic cuts to the landfill.
R&DE Student Housing makes it easy for students to leave Stanford sustainably. Students can “Give” their unwanted clothing, bikes, electronic equipment, mattresses, and mini fridges in good condition before moving out to “Go” on to their next adventure. This initiative reduces the amount of waste Stanford sends to a landfill and directly supports First-Generation and Low-Income students.
