UF Student Health Care Center staff commit to going green
In conjunction with the Sustainability effort here at UF, the Student Health Care Center created a fun way to help employees start thinking about the little things we can do (that we may not normally do at work) that will help minimize the environmental impact. They asked employees to sign the following pledge and, in honor of their commitment, they were given a button to wear. For the three months of the effort staff that sign the pledge will be allowed to wear jeans on a designated day.
This effort began on February 6th of this year, and 119 employees have signed the pledge! Though the effort may seem small, even the smallest effort can make a difference. SHCC says “THINK GREEN.”
SHCC SUSTAINABLE PLEDGE
As a member of the SHCC community, I will do my best to minimize my environmental impacts by pledging to practice the following:
- Recycle all plastic, glass and aluminum containers.
- Recycle paper, newspapers, magazines and soft-cover books.
- Turn off lights in my area when leaving for an extended period.
