The cool Campus Challenge seeks to promote sustainability and reduce college campuses carbon footprint through an online point system for things like turning off the lights. This would be a great idea to bring to the Geneseo campus! https://t.co/2kioinIY52 #Sustain315

NYS moving in the right direction now that Governor Cuomo has put a ban most types of single-use bags from retail. Behind California, we will be the second state to ban them outright! One step closer to preserving our worlds natural resources. #Sustain315 https://t.co/cQ2yeJYppo

This month I have stuck to only using reusable bags at the grocery store! I encourage all other college students to give this a try. Share reusable bags with your roommates and help reduce our plastic footprint. #Sustain315 https://t.co/Q9evrElsZ0

Scientists have come up with a model leaf that can use CO2 10X more effective than natural leaves! 60 of these artificial leaves covering a 500m square area would be able to reduce carbon dioxide levels by 10% in the surrounding air! #Sustain315 https://t.co/1T2usK53pl

So far the Geneseo Campus community has kept more than 1,000 pounds of plant and food waste from going to the landfill this month alone! What is your campus doing to reduce waste? #Sustain315 https://t.co/obpUereuYL

@Sustain315 Who has the largest effects on the Anthropocene? That would be us. Human activities are the driving force that has pushed the Earth's systems outside the stable environment of the Holocene. We have been able to identify the Earth's #Sustain315
