Boston College will continue its on-going emphasis on energy conservation with a “Green Week” campaign on campus from March 19-23.
“Green Week” is sponsored by the Undergraduate Government of Boston College and the Eco Pledge group along with the University’s Sustainability program office. In addition to a campus-wide information effort, “Green Week” will feature an Operations Sustainability Forum on March 20 at 4:30 p.m. at Fulton Hall. This event will include operations representatives from the Facilities Services, Dining Services, Information Technology, Procurement, Transportation and Parking, Residential Life and Athletics departments who will focus on each division’s current and future sustainability efforts and initiatives.
The forum is open to all members of the University community.
In a recent on-campus energy-savings competition, residents of Edmonds Hall decreased electricity consumption in their building by 3.4 percent — the most of any dormitory building. Residents will be treated to a pizza party and t-shirts from the Office of Sustainability for being the top energy savers on campus.
