Green Campus Profile - The Muhlenberg Green Guide

STUDENTS AT MUHLENBERG COLLEGE IN PENNSYLVANIA ARE TEACHING THEIR PROFESSORS AND THEIR PEERS A THING OR TWO ABOUT GOING GREEN.  LET’S TAKE NOTES ON TODAY’S ENVIRONMINUTE.

THE “MUHLENBERG COLLEGE GUIDE TO SUSTAINABLE LIVING” IS A COMPILATION OF GREEN TIPS FOR STUDENTS AND STAFF THAT WAS PUT TOGETHER BY A GROUP OF ECO-CONSCIOUS COMMUNICATIONS STUDENTS.  THE GUIDE INCLUDES WAYS TO CONSERVE ENERGY IN RESIDENCE HALLS, EAT ORGANICALLY ON CAMPUS, RECYCLE ELECTRONICS, AND MORE.

SENIOR ERIC FELD, THE EDITOR OF THE GUIDE, SAYS MANY OF HIS PEERS HAVE TAKEN THE SUGGESTIONS TO HEART.  HE SAYS IT HELPS THAT THE TIPS ARE EASY TO IMPLEMENT AND THAT THE AUTHORS PRACTICE WHAT THEY PREACH.

FELD: THE GUIDE BECOMES SORT OF A CONVERSATION BETWEEN STUDENTS. IT’S MORE OF A SUGGESTION OF HEY, THIS WORKS FOR ME, WHY DON’T YOU TRY THIS IN YOUR LIFE?

THE ENVIRONMINUTE IS MADE POSSIBLE BY THE HEINZ FAMILY PHILANTHROPIES AND THE HEINZ ENDOWMENTS.  LEARN MORE BY VISITING ENVIRONMINUTE-DOT-COM.
