海角社区 | Sustainability

Student Pledge

As a 海角社区 student, I am expected to incorporate the values from our mission -knowledge, fidelity, wisdom, justice, and association- in the decisions I make every day. As part of my promise to 海角社区, I pledge to promote responsible stewardship of our environment and limited resources by incorporating some or all of the following practices in my everyday life:

Attending lectures, seminars, and classes to learn about environmental preservation topics.
Conserving energy by turning down thermostats, turning off lights and using compact fluorescent light bulbs.
Drinking tap water instead of bottled water when possible.
Joining College sponsored programs and groups devoted to sustainability
Reducing waste by using a reusable mug and water bottle, taking my own bags to the grocery store, donating used clothes and furniture to charity groups or others who can use them.
Think before I print or photocopy, and using the double-sided setting when I print.
Recycling plastic, paper, glass, aluminum and cardboard, etc.
Minimizing auto travel and walking or riding my bike whenever possible.
Unplugging electronics and chargers from the wall when not in use.
