There are 17 Sustainability How-to Guides available in the IFMA’s Knowledge Library.  The Waste Stream Management Guide was recently updated, with new information on developing waste management plans and reorganized for easier reading. The webinar on June 22^nd highlighted waste management concepts, strategies for managing your site’s waste streams, and how to develop your own waste management plan. 

The Waste Stream Management guide presents a multi-faceted approach to waste stream management, addressing the strategies of reduction, reuse, recycling, recovery, and disposal. Sustainable facility management practices necessitate a holistic approach and the assessment of products and processes throughout their life cycle. This guide addresses the concepts of a zero waste facility, along with environmentally preferred purchasing and building a waste management plan. From performing a waste audit, to the designing and implementing a recycling program and how to engage your occupants in new behavior, the Waste Stream Management guide covers a facility manager’s domain when it comes to waste.
