Details

The problem to solve is as follows: With a lack human capital, how might we integrate/leverage the existing community groups within the students Union currently to translate the "awareness" of the plastic problem into direct climate action. The objective is to onboard a successive team within the students Union to ensure there is a vested interest for years to come.

Recircle is a waste management company that remanufactures plastic waste into consumer and industrial products via our semi-industrial shredder, decontamination, injection, and extrusion machines. Recircle differs from traditional recycling methods in that all plastic waste is kept local. Recircle executes a cradle-to-cradle business model by providing a new raw material (decontaminated plastic pellets) that otherwise would go straight to landfill for manufacturing companies, creating a circular economy. In other words, the collection, sorting, decontaminating, and remanufacturing of plastic waste is managed in the community it is consumed in. Piloting at St. Francis Xavier University (St.FX), Recircle aims to divert plastic waste from landfills and oceans by creating a value-recovery system that empowers St.FX to manage its own plastic waste. This community-based solution to recycling does not yet exist in Canada, and we hope to implement this solution in institutions across Canada.
