With the environment changing drastically due to global warming and human involvement, it is our responsibility to help out and stop the destruction. Over the past decade, weather patterns have been inconsistent. Going to Trinity and being an Environmental Studies major, I developed a keen interest in helping push for a greener campus in order to have a greener earth. I started noticing some small things around the campus that could be changed in order to drastically save the environment. Rather than inconveniencing people's luxuries, these small changes would not drastically alter their lifestyle. Some of these changes include installing light switches in some of the dorm bathrooms that do not have any, lowering the water pressure on the toilets, and implementing glass recycling around campus. More than just changing things around campus, people need to be aware of simple things like switching lights off and conserving water. Trinity has done many things to help save the environment like implementing automatic lights, getting rid of styrofoam to-go boxes, and starting a community garden. Though the Trinity community is helping the environment, through this blog I want to convey some small changes that could further help the green movement and push for a greener campus without inconveniencing people.
