Campus Sustainability

History

Our Campus Sustainability efforts started at the beginning of the Fall 2022 semester after the project won a majority vote within our club. This project was largely inspired by the international students that had joined our club. Additionally, this project is helping set the foundations for our Precious Plastic project we plan to start in Spring 2022, so stick around to here more about that project and our progress!

Description

The goal for this project is to promote more sustainable practices around campus, including recycling and energy-use reduction. To achieve this goal, we hung up small flyers around a few dorms and the international student houses. Additional awareness was raised through sign in the student union and our 2022 Fun Run. Since we are trying to get more invovled in the community and have a real affect on life at URI, we'd love any suggestions! If you have any comments or suggestions for us and for URI as a whole in terms of sustainability, please fill out the form (QR code) to the right!
