Five Ways USG Promotes Saving Resources:
Composting program
Food scraps are taken off campus to a composting sight, rather than going into a landfill.
Water Initiatives
- Rain water capture system in parking garage used towards landscaping.
- Dual flush toilets/aeration on sinks saves 40% on potable water use.
- Signage in bathrooms promotes water conservation at work and at home.
- New filtration systems on some of the water fountains whichs allows you to reuse your water bottle and enjoy the benefits of filtered tap water while saving money!
Really Local Produce
Using herbs and vegetables from our own campus gardens saves on transportation costs.
