Keep Scotland Beautiful and Coca Cola Euro Pacific Partners have teamed up to try to help enhance the way students are recycling and disposing of their litter.
They will be placing dedicated recycling bins for plastic bottles on each of Forth Valley College’s three campuses in Falkirk, Stirling and Alloa soon to encourage students to address the recycling and disposal of plastic bottles associated with ‘Food on the Go’. Promotional material will be provided to help people separate and discard their litter properly in the bins provided.
It is hoped the results of the survey will help inform the Scottish Government of future recycling policies.
Principal Kenny MacInnes, said: “We are delighted to be helping Keep Scotland Beautiful with their survey and their litter and recycling intervention delivery plan. This will raise awareness of the proper way to recycle among young people in the Forth Valley area, and where better to do that than in Forth Valley College. This initiative ties in well with our Sustainability and Net Zero plans and we are hopeful the awareness raised through this campaign will enhance our own efforts to recycle.”
