Higher Education and Environmental Sustainability (#envirohighered) - You Cannot Purchase Water Bottles Here!


Readers,

Last summer, I had the pleasure of attending the Council on Undergraduate Research Councilor's conference at Washington University in St. Louis. While visiting the conference, I soon realized that this campus culture was significantly different from the experiences that I have had at Texas universities. At Washington University, the students, faculty, and staff are not given the option to purchase bottled water.

This is an innovative program that focuses on water consumption and waste reduction.  Here's an article that focuses on this program:


Sincerely,

J. Edwards
