Have you been thinking about being green?

Do you ever wonder how energy use in your office relates to climate change?

Have you ever thought about planning a green event for your office?

Has your office started a cool eco-initiative?

Would you like help recycling?

IF SO, BECOME AN ECO-AMBASSADOR!

The Office of Sustainability at Tufts wants to help staff members – the stewards of the university's departments and offices – make their workplaces more sustainable. In fall 2008, we are launching a pilot “Eco Ambassador” program on the Medford campus that will use innovative speakers and activities to make connections between the work and natural environment. The program will also train staff to serve as sustainability resources within their offices.

Eco-Ambassadors participate in 6 sessions in the Fall 2008 semester and are eligible to apply for a small grant to help initiatiate sustainable actions in their office or department.
