Recycling
Spelman
supports environmental awareness by encouraging recycling and waste
management in its business practices and operating procedures. This
support includes a commitment to the purchase, use, and disposal of
products and materials in a manner that will best utilize natural
resources and minimize any negative impact on the earth's environment.
Special
recycling receptacles have been set up to promote the separation and
collection of the following recyclable materials at Spelman:
ü
Computer paper
ü
White high grade or bond paper
ü
Ledger paper
ü
Newspaper
ü
Aluminum
The simple
act of placing a piece of paper, can, or bottle in a recycling
container is the first step in reducing demand on the earth's limited
resources. Success of this program depends on active participation by
all of us. Employees are encouraged to make a commitment to recycle and
be a part of this solution.
Whenever
possible, employees of Spelman are encouraged to purchase products for
the workplace that contain recycled or easily recyclable materials.
Buying recycled products supports recycling and increases the markets
for recyclable materials.
By
recycling, Spelman is helping to solve trash disposal and control
problems facing all of us today. If you have any questions or new ideas
and suggestions for the recycling program contact please contact the
Purchasing department.
