Sustainapalooza...

More like "Sustainapa-winner!"

Next week is our celebration "Sustainapalooza." This is where we get in gear for striving towards a greener initiative and take responsibility for our own actions, and become stewards, as opposed to burdens, to our environment and our future. There are some really exciting events such as a presentation and showing of the Documentary film "FUEL" by Josh Tickell! To learn more about some events during "Sustainapalooza" visit student activities here.

The "S.C.C. Green Team Committee" has worked diligently to implement a recycling program on campus, and has succeeded well beyond any one's expectations. Single stream recycling is here. Anything that is recyclables can be thrown into one bin, taking the guesswork out of recycling and making it more efficient for everyone, and for the ideal itself!

As groundskeepers, we take our impact on the environment very seriously everyday. Each day we make decisions that will impact the environment. We are the forefront of environmental stewards and we take this very seriously. We have taken an active role in the "S.C.C. Green Committee," "S.C.C. Outdoors Club," "Higher Education Sustainability Consortium," "Arbor day Foundation" and many more organizations to keep up to date and do our part to move us into the forefront of sustainable practices!

If you want to learn more about our efforts as we start our part of the recycling program, and other exciting "green Decisions" and practices we are involved in, and are moving in to, please come see what we are up to at "Grounds: Our Story, Past, Present, and Future!" Thursday September 2nd, 11:30 AM, Social Science Building Auditorium! See you there! And don't be a "Looza" come to Sustainapalooza!
