A brief description of the composting or mulching program:

LMU recycles 100% of its green waste. Most of the green waste is used as alternative daily cover at local landfills, which is still viewed as waste diversion according to the State of California. Moreover, some of the green waste is mulched and composted on-site and utilized in various areas on campus including the LMU campus community garden known as The LIONS Garden.
