OSU Sustainability: Get Involved Sustainability.okstate.edu @OSUgreen #OSURLR

Get educated! Energy conservation: As a part of the Cowboy family, you are both an “energy saver” as well as an “energy consumer.” When not in use, turn off all computers, monitors, speakers, and printers.  Unplug all chargers, fans, coffee pots, and other appliances when you are away. Before long breaks, clean out small refrigerators, and unplug with door propped open.  Close blinds and tilt slats upwards to keep cool on hot days. Turn off lights, and unplug all seasonal lights.

Get experienced! Career: OSU provides classroom education and research on sustainability and sustainable development topics. Organizations: “Walk the talk” and set an example for peers by reducing waste & conserving energy within your residence hall. Apply to be an Eco-Rep for your Community Council.

Get smart! Reduce, Reuse: Look for minimal packaging; bulk or concentrate forms Take only what you will eat Report leaky faucets and shower heads: (405) 744-8510 Choose durable rather than disposable Rent, borrow, share or buy used instead of purchasing new Wash full loads of laundry and use cold water Have items repaired when possible Carry a reusable bag for purchases and reusable cup Purchase products made with recycled content When recycling you can reduce your impact on the environment, and provide feed stocks for the creation of new products Recycle on campus in the OSU Recycles and ResLife Recycles programs.

Get participating! Organizations: Join these great groups that are making a difference on campus and in the world today Eco-Reps & RHA SGA Sustainability Committee Environmental Science Club Net Impact Habitat for Humanity OSU Chapter Sustainability, Energy & Resources Collaborative Engineers without Borders Biosystems and Agricultural Engineering GSA Society of Environmental Scientists

Ask Questions Because we’ve got the answers. Follow OSU Energy Management & Sustainability on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram to stay in touch Remember, GCA staff are people too – don’t place your personal trash or recyclables into the lounge trash or recycle bins. You know what we’re talking about! Get to know your Eco-Rep or become one for your Community Council. For more information visit : sustainability.okstate.edu
