A brief description of the innovative policy, practice, program, or outcome :
A graduate student, in association with the Wisconsin Institute of Sustainable Technology at UW-Stevens Point, is studying the end-of-life options of bio-based plastics (PLA). A pilot study will be done on campus in fall/spring semesters (2011-2012) where we will collect, separate, clean, shred/compact and transfer the PLA to a facility who will re-use the commodity. The graduate student will market the project, do cost-benefit analysis and environmental impact analysis.
