Waste Recycling Programs |
|
The goal of the District’s Recycling Program is
to reduce the amount of waste the District
disposes in landfills by 70 percent during the
period 1990 to 2020, increasing from the current
50 percent goal adopted in 1989, making our goal
consistent with that established by the City of
Los Angeles. See the current diversion rate the
district is achieving here:

LAUSD and the City of Los Angeles are partnered to improve waste recycling efforts. Download and print the following:

Waste Reduction Success Again in 2008!
Greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions are
emitted at nearly every stage of a
product’s lifecycle, including
during waste management. How
organizations choose to manage their
waste has significant implications
on global climate change. The
WasteWise Program enhances the
capacity of its partners to reduce
GHG emissions through waste
reduction activities, benefiting
both the environment and the
organization’s bottom line. See LAUSD 2008 Climate Profile.
