BATTERY RECYCLING PROGRAM:
Each battery that is thrown away has the potential to contaminate the environment with dangerous substances, such as lead and mercury. MUSC Sustainability Program is collecting all dead batteries on the MUSC campus: call 792-4119 (792-5600 in ART) For a full list of batteries and more info on the battery recycling program click here NOTE: please tape the contacts of the 9V square ones!

  At MUSC, the efforts of the Engineering and Facilities Sustainability Program will reduce the environmental impact of our campus by advancing energy efficiency, water conservation and encouraging recycling. Last year, MUSC recycled 27% of total solid waste. Guiding departments and units to reduce waste and helping them to conserve resources is our mission while we continue to increase the proportion of waste that is recycled.

Look for new Outdoor Recycling Bins in & around the horseshoe!
