AS Recycling Launches their Compost Pilot Project!
Socially Conscious Investing online radio is hosted by Social Impact Marketing.
AS Coastal Fund is proud to sponsor AS Recycling's new campaign to bring composting to the UCSB campus. Next Monday will mark the launch of this exciting new project that will make UCSB a leader in campus sustainability. This project represents an exciting step closer to replacing single-use plastic products, such as straws and utensils, with compostable products, which would greatly reduce our waste production. To learn more about composting and the Compost Pilot Project and its volunteer opportunities check out the AS Recycling website!
UCSB Plastic Pollution Coalition Week of Awareness
The UCSB Plastic Pollution Coalition is an alliance of student organizations, community organizations and campus administration that's goal is to systematically eliminate single-use plastics from campus through education and policy. To learn more about the UCSB-PPC, click on this link.
This year, we began the winter quarter with a week of plastic awareness. Each day was filled with fun, educational events that were geared towards raising awareness of plastic consumption on campus. Check out the pictures!
We were thrilled to kick-off the quarter with such a fun group of enthusiastic environmentalists. Special thanks to IV Surfrider, Calpirg, Environmental Affairs Board, the Office of the AS President, Say No to Styro, the Bren School of Environmental Science and Management, Art from Scrap, The Community Environmental Council, SB Channelkeeper, UCSB Reads and the Plastic Pollution Coalition for all your hard work, dedication, and relentless enthusiasm. Volunteers are the heart and soul to any campaign, and we are so lucky to work a long side all of you!
