Bonners and Peer Chaplins. Together we would work to recycle
cardboard, aluminum, glass, newspapers, and plastics.

we produce, and aid in the preservation of our environment
for our years to come.

two enviro weeks by this time, email newsletters to students
and staff participation.

area

Liz Yoder, Earlham College
1) Making Earlham more eco-friendly. Accessing where we are
as a campus and where we can proceed (green buildings that
are being built, raising awareness to reduce resource use,
making recycling and composting more of a priority.
2) Resources are finites, we need to reduce and reuse and
be an example of sustainable living to the community. We will
need support from professors (especially those involved in
the environmental programs dept.), support from the Bonner
to take leadership and especially from the whole student body
to institute change.
3) By next June: I hope to have all houses reduce their use
and composting and recycling. I hope to bring the discussion
of the environmental impact of the new buildings up to the
students and begin the conversation of reducing this impact.
4) talk to Mic and Charlie (2 profs. Interested in environmental
issues) and hold a panel where they inform the students where
we are in our greening process. (beginning of fall) Talk to
our school president and hear his motivations. (early fall)
5) Meet with profs. And president.
-hold mtg (open to all students) where they are informed about
what they can do.
-hold panel where students can hear about new building processes
and give their input
-survey students in houses to see if they are composting/recycling,
why or why not
