February 5th: Environmental Club Meeting and Hack!
Posted by Holly Talkington
Thursday, February 5th, 12:00pm
Sylvania Campus, Environmental Center, CC 215
Come by the Environmental Center next Thursday for their next meeting. They will discuss Nestle Bottle Plant controversy, Take Back the Tap, UpCycling and working on filling out the charter. Also they would like club members to be thinking about what issue is most important to them.
Here is a quick Environmental Hack for you to consider. As the price of gas drops, we want to get out and take a few road trips. (Oregon also has been experiencing some phenomenal weather, which is certainly a motivator!) As we drive to other states, we have to worry about pumping our own gas though. This is where the following Environmental Hack comes into play:
According to Reduce Footprints (citing the Auto Channel), 147 million gallons of gas, each year, vaporize into the air due to loose, damaged or missing gas caps. Keep your fuel in the tank by making sure you screw the cap on tight. Keep this in mind as you plan your spring break road trips!
