Recycling and Eco-Friendly Living at University of Cambridge, UK

Here is some interesting and encouraging info on recycling and environmental concerns at the University of Cambridge. Cambridge City Council together with the Colleges and University organizes recycling very well and informs the poeple of "town and those of gown" on eco-related issues quite effectively. The following links are from Cambridge City Council Website. Students as well are quite active.

Below are several links. I was surprised to see how well this is organized here and how many things are happening.
