SUGGESTIONS FOR SUSTAINABLE LIFE ON CAMPUS
Reduce Environmental Footprint |
The impacts of climate change pose a serious threat to the health of our planet. Every individual has a responsibility to reduce their environmental footprint in order to mitigate the negative effects of climate change. |
Save Energy |
Reduce energy use to help our campus reach its carbon neutrality goal. Unplug devices when not in use and switch off unnecessary lights. |
Save Water |
Create opportunities to consciously reduce your water usage. Start with simple actions like turning off unnecessary running taps, running the dishwasher only when it's full, and cutting down on coffee consumption. |
Use Natural Resources Efficiently |
When purchasing products, consider their environmental impact throughout their entire lifecycle. Aim to buy fewer new items and choose sustainable alternatives whenever possible. |
Reduce, Reuse, Recycle |
Support waste reduction by reducing product consumption. For products that are no longer usable, encourage reuse or, if not possible, recovery through recycling. |
Use Sustainable Transportation |
Use Sustainable Transport Actions to reduce your carbon footprint from your travels. Consider public transport, ridesharing apps, biking or walking. |
Evaluate Sustainable Food Options |
You can reduce meat consumption in your diet and consider vegetable-based diet options. You can avoid the use of single-use plastics by using your water bottle instead of bottled water. |
