This project investigated different methods of visitor outreach and education to improve Glacier National Park’s (GNP) waste management system. The methods we investigated were based around the promotion of source reduction, reuse, and visitor recycling practices. Our team focused on developing recommendations for recycling resources within the park, pre-trip education, and content available on GNP’s website, and created templates for printed posters and brochures for disseminating recycling and sustainability information on the ground throughout the park. We also created an infographic as well as an ArcGIS map to implement into an email-based reservation outreach system to educate visitors about recycling and sustainable practices before they come to the park. Finally, through web analytics, our team analyzed GNPs website to provide recommendations on how to include more accessible sustainability and recycling information for park visitors.
