The Dane County, Wisconsin Department of Waste & Renewables is planning for their changing waste stream and advancing towards a circular economy with its Sustainability Campus.
The development of a sustainable business park or “Sustainability Campus” diverts waste and creates local circular economies. The operation attracts reuse, repair, and recycling businesses; new waste management technologies; and research. The aim is to design the site for safe public access, education, and recreation where visitors can examine their relationship with waste as the Dane County community moves towards a future where waste is not a liability, but a resource and an opportunity.
