Energy Awareness Bulletins Movie Night
Chalking Energy Competitions

Energy Efficient Bulletins

To create posters, have your residents meet with us. We will devise a discussion concerning Energy Awareness, Efficiency, and Conservation. Our goal is to get students thinking about how energy consumption is involved in pretty much everything we do in our daily lives, and to get them to think of simple ways they can reduce thier energy output in the dorms. After our discussion is complete, residents will create posters for bulletin boards with slogans and images that will reach every person passing by.

Cost: The cost is minimal as only poster paper and markers are needed. You can jazz it up by bringing stencils, glitter pens, stationary, or just about anything you can think of!

 


Chalking

Side walk chalk is impermanent, non-toxic, and doesn't harm the earth. Contact us to plan a date on which we can have students meet outside and quickly discuss our motive for the chalking, which is to create meaningful displays about the environment that can affect those who see it. Basically, if you are looking at any image or text about the environment then you are thinking about it. The first step in getting people to change thier behavior is - to be aware!

Cost: Pay for the chalk and let the residents do the rest!


Movie Night

Movie watching is as simple as it gets. We may have some movie ideas when it comes to films about energy efficiency, or you may have an idea of your own.

Cost: Rental costs, some munchies, and drinks.


Energy Competition

Energy Competitions are great ways to affect your residents in a big way. Your first step is to contact us so we can give you and your residents a clear rundown of how it works. This could be a kick-off meeting to get them excited and involved.

What we do is schedule dates to come into your resident's dorms and audit thier energy usage. Based on certain energy efficient criteria, points will be given to each dorm room. The dorm with the most points wins and gets thier story up on our website and in our newsletter. The winner also get a prize along the lines of dinner on us.

Cost: We pick up the cost on this one in the terms of prizes, you just need to get your residents to sign up and then be there at their schedules audit time. Check out our flyers to get your residents up to date on how to save energy.
