Hello from Your Green Team,
 
With all this talk about proper sorting, it is good to know what is appropriate to go in the landfill bin in addition to what can go into the different recycling containers located on campus. 
There are actually fewer items than you think that are appropriate for the landfill bin.  

Chip bagsGranola bar wrappers
Condiment packages or wrappersNon-stretchy plastic bags or wrappers
Single-use hot cupsSingle-use soda cups 
Styrofoam take out or drink containerMade to order sandwich wrappers
When possible, try to reduce your consumption of these items. 

If you have any questions, please contact recycle@psu.edu or tweet questions to @sustainPSU.
This is what we do, and this is how we do it,
Your Green Team
