Smart, sustainable and efficient recycling reimagined.

ASU is introducing five Oscar Sort artificial intelligence-powered waste sorting systems to its campuses in spring 2025. These innovative sorting systems will help students, faculty and staff properly dispose of their waste while reducing contamination in recycling and compost bins. 

Learn how to plan a sustainable event.

As ASU champions sustainability and zero waste practices across its campuses, event planners are crucial in driving meaningful change. By reducing waste and making mindful purchasing decisions, they support ASU’s sustainability goals and enhance the overall event experience. However, adopting these practices comes with challenges that planners must navigate to create more sustainable gatherings.

Available tools to incorporate sustainability into your purchasing decisions.

All purchases that ASU employees make — office supplies, welcome gifts, promotional items, scientific materials — affect ASU’s environmental footprint. The pressure to purchase items quickly often leads us to use familiar suppliers and large corporations.
