ROT station rollout

In an effort to make it easier for the UB community to recycle — and keep more waste out of landfills — the university this summer is rolling out hundreds of ROT (Recycle, Organics, and Trash) stations across the campuses. The ROT initiative is a key part of UB’s climate action plan aiming for climate neutrality and a zero waste goal of diverting 90% of waste from landfills and waste-to-energy facilities by 2030.
