When you're moving out after spring term, remember to #recycle, sell, or #donate items before throwing stuff away! Recycling and reusing reduces your #carbonfootprint by reducing the need for people to buy new products!

According to @friendsoftreeseugene there are 600 trees in West Eugene. Trees are our friends. They can help absorb carbon emissions, fight climate change, and lower the world’s temperature! You can join them in volunteering to help our environment. 🌳🌱🍀

With the weather getting warmer remember to turn off the AC and open the windows in the evening! Save energy and the planet!

With the weather getting nicer in Eugene this is a great opportunity to reduce your carbon emissions by skipping the dryer and hanging your out clothes to dry in the sun!
