Have a sustainable event or practice to share?

As we approach the end of 2018, the JCU Sustainability Committee wishes to poll University constituents for examples of sustainability initiatives in their own areas, e.g., Staff Council hosted a zero-waste soup luncheon in January 2018; Grasselli Library diverted of several tons of old books and journals in July to pulp recycling rather than to the landfill. Also, we heard about a student employee-led initiative to make “no paper receipt” the default on book check-outs.

We want to hear from you, about your individual or department/divisional sustainable events and efforts in 2018. These will be compiled and published in our annual report, slated for late January.

Send your stories and successes to sustainability@jcu.edu.
