Mizzou study addresses waste from football games

The University of Missouri recently published a study analyzing the waste generated at Memorial Stadium across seven games during the 2014 football season.

It found that 47.3 metric tons were generated, 43.2% of which was recyclables and 24.2% was food waste.

The Mizzou Athletics Director of Event Management says the study will have an effect on the planning of the south end-zone expansion project, which is scheduled to finish by the start of the 2019 season.
