...reduction strategies. New on campus are the new solar-powered Big Belly trash and recycling compactors, which fill up far less quickly than non-compacting receptacles and reduce the incentive to litter that overflowing trash cans often provide.

But there is an eyewitness report of life at the gilded Angkor court. In fact, it is the only one: Zhou Daguan's A Record of Cambodia: The Land and Its People...
