You know what to do!  Post your hours and share your successes!

December 2009

This month might be tricky in terms of getting your hours in- feel free to count any volunteering that might happen outside of Oly if you're leaving for the holidays.  This quarter was so wonderful, thanks so much for working so hard yall! 

The Story of Campus Trash

Former RAD Sustainability Intern Halli Winstead takes us through the campus waste system - a pretty fascinating read about what Evergreen (and the county) does with trash, recyclables and our compost waste.

"Some causes include a 'throw-away' mentality about products we purchase, production of single-use products, lack of technology for managing long-lasting toxic wastes as well as a general apathy toward future issues associated with today's waste products. Thanks to the beloved garbage haulers and municipal sewage systems we no longer have to manage our personal waste products.  This allows us the luxury of throwing things 'away', forgetting about them and being distanced from the results of our consumer by-products.  Landfills, incinerators and litter cause quite a bit of damage, especially to the environment.  "

Waste Not, Want Not

Mother Jones: Waste Not, Want Not

A great article by Bill McKibben about hyperconsumerism and landfill waste. 

"Getting out of the fix we're in—if it's still possible—requires in part that we relearn some very old lessons. We were once famously thrifty: Yankee frugality, straightening bent nails, saving string. We used to have a holiday, Thrift Week, which began on Ben Franklin's birthday: "Beware of little expenses; a small leak will sink a great ship," said he. We disapproved of frippery, couldn't imagine wasting money on ourselves, made do or did without. It took a mighty effort to make us what we are today—in fact, it took a mighty industry [and] advertising... and represents an almost total waste."

The combination of increased landscaping and gardening space on lower campus and the recent legalization of rainwater harvesting in Washington makes this an opportune and vital time to look into developing rainwater catchment systems that are feasible for implementation on lower campus.
