Game Day Recycling is the idea that having large crowds of people in a small, concentrated space will generate great amounts of trash and products that need to be recycled. On college campuses with large stadiums, a home football game can attract up to about 110,000 people, like the University of Michigan’s stadium.〔Gardner, Tim. “Michigan's big house is back as the nation's biggest football stadium.” USA Today. 14 July 2010 Retrieved 16. Nov. 2010. http://content.usatoday.com/communities/campusrivalry/post/2010/07/michigans-big-house-is-back-as-the-nations-biggest-football-stadium/1〕 However, because colleges only play a limited number of games at home each season, the recycling programs specifically for game days are usually specialized and separate from the school’s regular recycling program. The primary reason for implementing game day recycling programs is to become a more sustainable campus. Many college campuses implement game day recycling programs to deal with the large amount of trash and recycling generated by fans. Tailgaters bring copious amounts of food and refreshments, providing the greatest amount of waste during a gameday.〔“Can your school talk trash? EPA Gameday Challenge encourages waste reduction at college football games. Sept. 2010. Retrieved 17 Nov. 2010. http://www.ecometrica.co.uk/blog/can-your-school-talk-trash/#_ftn1〕 Inside the stadium, programs, concessions, beverages and vending machine items also contribute to huge amounts of waste. ==Definitions== Sustainable: of, relating to, or being a method of harvesting or using a resource so that the resource is not depleted or permanently damaged〔“Sustainable” Merriam-Webster Online Dictionary. 16 Nov. 2010. http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/sustainable〕
