Attached are suggestions collected from students, faculty, and staff during the brainstorming session of the Charlotte Green Initiative’s Open Forum Event.

From Justin Ritchie’s notes,

• Recycling vessels added to campus
• Bottles and can crushers
• Re-useable take-out containers
• Energy Efficient Cappucino machine

Will create list of what we want to see in campus housing at next meeting.

The key component of the Charlotte Green Initiative will be the ideas for environmentally sustainable projects submitted by students.

Until we have a form online to provide a standard method of submission for each idea, please email ideas to me, the current committee chair, at jritch77@gmail.com

I’ll hope to hear from you soon!

We are working on all the information we’ll need to have a successful year in studying how to make UNC Charlotte’s student body a leader in environmental stewardship. As we allocate the funding provided by the “Green Fee” we’ll be posting our meeting minutes and updates on this page.
