Recap of the Past Few Weeks




Greetings!

Though it has been a while since our last blog post, that doesn't mean we haven't been doing some awesome activities and events these past weeks!


No Impact Week was a week filled with Green Club activities, including baking vegan cookies and a big BOSS party. Below are a few pictures with highlights from the week.






The RecycleMania competition officially ended Februrary 23. Patterson, JL, and Willow tied for the residence hall competition. Congratulations residents of those halls!



We partnered with Divest Tulane and 350.org to host a student panel called "Building a Bold Student Resistance". We had some awesome speakers including: Cherri Foytlin, Prexby Nisbitt, Naomi Klein and Alli Welton.




This past Saturday we went wetland planting with the Lake Ponchatrain Basin Foundation. It was pretty awesome!







Last week was our annual energy debate, which we hosted with the Political Science Dept and the Energy Institute. We had Tyson Slocum, Director of Public Citizen’s Energy program, and Eric Smith from Tulane’s Energy Institute come to debate the pros and cons of hydraulic fracturing.




Stay tuned for some more information about Green Club and what events are to come!
