4th Annual Dumpster Dive

On Friday, November 13, 2009, Mesa Community College will be hosting the 4th Annual Dumpster Dive - a Campus Waste Awareness event.

Live demonstrations, media coverage, information tables, vendors, and youth participation, are just part of the fun we have planned to help inform students, surrounding primary schools, and our local community about the importance of waste diversion, limited landfill space, and other sustainability issues impacting our planet.

Learn more about this event and get ready to get dirty!
