Be Crimson, Go Green
Environmental Wellbeing reflects our degree of awareness and appreciation of the critical role the environment plays in our individual wellbeing; an understanding that humans are part of the environment and not separate from it; that all human activity impacts the environment and can jeopardize the environment’s ability to provide essential services needed to sustain life.
Be Crimson, Go Green is a campaign to help students become a part of the more global sustainability movement. Wellbeing provides resources, events, workshops and the NEW! Green Bike program, to help the Cougars give back to the greater community.
