RecycleMania 2010 Starts!
Sunday, January 17th marks the beginning of the 2010 competition. A record number of colleges and universities across the United States, Canada and as far away as Qatar, have begun collecting their recycling and trash weights as part of the first two weeks of trials. Weight data will start to trickle in soon with Week 1 rankings to be posted to the Results page on Friday 29th. RecycleMania will run ten weeks until March 27. Good luck to all participating schools!
