Promoting Campus Sustainability

May 7, 2008

As JUST mentioned, I have finished my semester in Hong Kong as well as my first experience of living in a dorm. This gave me an idea: promoting sustainability in school dorms.

The dorms can be equipped with composting and recycling bins, incentives for turning off lights (or timers and sensors, but I think this concept needs a little more research), low-pressure water spouts and heating, bike racks to promote cycling, and paying for air conditioning.

I’m sure there’s more ideas out there, please feel free to add!
