| Title: | San Francisco’s Moscone Center Aims for 75 Percent Waste Diversion by 2010 |
| Document Date: | 10/01/2008 |
| Description: | This Recycle on the Go Success Story discusses San Francisco's premiere convention center, the Moscone Center, which has an overall recycling rate that has exceeded 50 percent since 1998. Over the last five years, the convention center has annually diverted an average of more than 800 tons of materials from the waste stream. Since compost collection began in 2004, overall diversion numbers have continued to climb, reaching 500 tons in the first half of 2008 alone. Of this, over 10 percent represents donation of reusable materials to local nonprofit organizations. |
