91探花 public forum to launch Sustainability Week on October 19
| Alumni
To launch Sustainability Week on October 19, the 91探花 Office of Sustainability and Energy Management is organizing a public forum about sustainability initiatives at post-secondary institutions in the Atlantic region. Speakers from six institutions will highlight their efforts and initiatives around sustainability.
Their presentations will be followed by a panel discussion on how institutions can work together to improve sustainability across the region. The forum is open to the public. It takes place in the MacKinnon Lecture Theatre, McDougall Hall, 91探花, beginning at 7:00 p.m.
On October 20, at 6:00 p.m. in AVC Lecture Theatre A, the 91探花 Graduate Students Association will host a movie night and discussion on water use and abuse. It will start with the award-winning film FLOW (For the Love of Water).
Students in residence at 91探花 are also developing an energy challenge initiative to encourage students on other campuses in the region to reduce energy consumption. This is being planned for January.
