The goal of the SPOILED project is to accelerate residential compostable waste collection, specifically in our university, with the hope that finding and introducing a composting system that works will encourage the larger Waltham and Boston community to amp up their composting efforts as well. At Bentley University, we began by conducting thorough research of the systems in place for composting, as well as by talking to neighboring universities such as Brandeis that had proved successful in composting in the past. We encountered two major obstacles: lack of funding and the issue of individuals throwing trash in composting bins. To tackle the second issue, we implemented an awareness campaign that included teaching people about the significance of composting, as well as explaining why a single piece of trash thrown into a composting bin made the whole composting bin un-usable and hence negatively affected the entire composting system, many times even making the cycle unsustainable.
