How may coffee cups are used and thrown away each day on Western campus? You’d be surprised. The annual mountain-o-timmies is sure to make its appearance at this year’s EnviroWeek October 19th – 23rd.
In response to an overall grade of "C" on the 2010 College Sustainability Report Card, let’s show the Sustainable Endowments Institute what grade Western students deserve in "student involvement in sustainability" by getting together for some fun Captain Planet-worthy events!
On top of the guilt-inducing pile of cups you’ll pass on
- Monday at 12 PM (UCC): Drumming circle – Bangbangbang out that tree-hugging love in the UCC
- Tuesday All Day (Concrete Beach): Farmer’s Market – Support local growers and buy some yummy fresh snacks for lunch
- Wednesday at 5 PM (Concrete Beach): Climate Change Awareness Group Biking Event
- Thursday All Day (UCC and Spoke): FREE COFFEE!!! (if you bring a mug)
- Friday 2 PM (UCC): Campus-Wide Clean up! – finish off Enviroweek by doing your tiny part to keep our campus Green!
But these are just some of the events to look forward to, check out the EnviroWestern website for the complete schedule.
