I am happy to share that I have recently become a Certified Green Buckeye through the Certified Green Buckeye Program!

To provide information, according to The Office of Student Life, “The Certified Green Buckeye Program is a sustainability initiative to promote energy and environmentally conscious living within residence halls.”

I was so excited to learn about this initiative because I have been looking for ways to become more environmentally conscious and eco-friendly for awhile now. To receive my certification I completed a short questionnaire about what things I do to incorporate sustainability into my everyday life. The questionnaire was eye-opening to me because not only did it allow me to become aware of my own habits but gave me ideas on how I can improve my sustainability efforts on and off-campus.

The achievement level that I earned was “Gray Level”! I am looking forward to taking the questionnaire again a year from now and seeing how much I improved.

I encourage you all to try the questionnaire to learn more about yourself and how your actions impact your community.
