CAMPUS Food Zoo turns fries into fertilizer

Erin Cole Montana Kaimin

Over the summer break, two silver rectangles were moved into a corner of the gold-tiled Food Zoo dish room. While the unassuming machines look like high-tech dishwashers, they are actually the latest step in the evolution of how Dining Services handles its waste. According to Dining Services Director Mark LoParco, uncon- sumed portions from students’ meals used to get thrown away in bulk. Despite later purchas- ing a food pulper to cut down on the volume and sending some of the leftovers to the PEAS Farm to be used as compost, LoParco was still looking for a more en- vironmentally-friendly disposal method. Enter the two eCorect 100 Waste Reducers. According to LoParco, the two machines, which turn compostable waste into a rich soil fertilizer, are the first to arrive in the Northwest. “The need was created by us wanting to do more sustainable business practices,” he said.

Construction on University of Montana’s main campus has been prevalent the last five years, and our campus has gorgeous new structures to prove it. The Payne Family Na- tive American Center, Don Anderson Hall, even the glis- tening new luxury boxes in Washington Grizzly Stadium — much of it is a testament to the generosity of private do- nors who have devoted millions to this school’s facilities. This is what we see every day — and it’s not hard for cartoon by Joe Veltkamp students on the main campus to often take for granted how comfortable and spacious the facilities really are. A mile SCIENCE COLUMN and a half south at the UM College of Technology, where enrollment has been booming in the past two years, many students are learning in trailers set up in a parking lot.
