== <span style="font-size:large;">'''Strategy Three: Let's Take Recycling Seriously'''</span> ==
<span style="color:#000000;"><span style="font-size:medium;">Montevideo has a huge problem regarding waste. In 2017 a local newspaper published that the place where our city displays waste will exceed its capacity in no more than 5 years. Currently our University does not have an efficient recycling program and it’s not focusing on impacting our community and conscientizing its students and staff, that are as well citizens.</span></span>
<span style="color:#000000;"><span style="font-size:medium;">After LOOP, Semana de la Innovación, in which we brought to the University a social project called “Resuena”, everybody got aware of a problem no one had realized before. Aiming to spread a 360° message of sustainability, LOOP allied with that key partner to foster a never seen environmental awareness program on it’s participants and staff. As previously stated, Montevideo as a whole, is facing a deep problem related to the limited capacity of trash dumps.</span></span>
<span style="color:#000000;"><span style="font-size:medium;">With the goal in mind to generate change, Resuena put 10 recycle bin stations with their corresponding banners along the building to classify the trash in three simple categories:</span></span>
*<span style="color:#000000;"><span style="font-size:medium;">Organic waste</span></span>*<span style="color:#000000;"><span style="font-size:medium;">Recyclable stuff</span></span>*<span style="color:#000000;"><span style="font-size:medium;">Mixed trash</span></span>
<span style="color:#000000;"><br/></span>
<span style="color:#000000;"><span style="font-size:medium;">Even though 3 categories is not quite enough to make a correct classification of the trash, it’s a great beginning for a country with a poor, but slowly increasing culture of recycling. Nevertheless, it was utterly surprising how people, participants and authorities reacted positively to this initiative.</span></span>
