\n Recycling is a concept, normally, taken-for-granted within academic approaches to environmental management. The science of recycling usually addresses recycling as an activity which needs optimising, rather than questioning. My take on recycling differs from the standard one: I focus on possibilities to conceptualise an agent who was responsible for implementing a recycling scheme for her organisation. By way of drawing on sociological theories (especially Bourdieu's theory of practice and Actor-network theory) I point to significant problems in approaching sustainability. The empirical data consists of ethnographic field work which illustrates societal implications for thinking about transforming organisations towards sustainable conduct: By constructing a recycling scheme the waste manager of the organisation ensures that the organisation does not move towards reducing or altering resource consumption.

\n At the latest since the global oil crises between 1970 and 1980 \"energy\" has been continuously a topic in Western discourses of environmental and technology politics.
