October 25, 2011 > Stop Waste at Work contest Stop Waste at Work contest Submitted By Elizabeth Pietrzak Now through mid-November 2011, individuals who work in Alameda County (employees of commercial businesses as well as civic organizations and non-profits) can win prizes for properly sorting their office waste and encouraging co-workers to do the same. People can pledge directly by 'liking' StopWaste.Org's Facebook page and clicking on the 'contest' tab where followers will also be provided with contest updates, helpful tips and other useful information about recycling at work. It is also possible to pledge directly at www.StopWaste.org. In addition, the "Stop Waste at Work" Contest Prize Crew will travel to randomly selected businesses throughout Alameda County to sort through their garbage and reward those who are doing an exceptional job of recycling. Those businesses deemed to be accurately separating their recyclables, food waste and other compostables (where service is available) are eligible to win an office pizza party.
