Cool Campus Challenge 2019 has begun!
Cool Campus Challenge is a 4-week challenge with the goal to educate and motivate UC campuses to take simple sustainable actions to help the UC reach the carbon neutrality by 2025. Cool Campus Challenge is a partnership between the the University of California and UC Berkeley's Renewable and Appropriate Energy Laboratory and Center for Sustainable Energy.
UCSC's Cool Campus Challenge Team is run by Kyra Fitz, Rona Berger, and Ellen Vaughan. Fitz and Berger are Carbon Neutrality Engagement Fellows and Vaughan is the Climate and and Water Action Manager.
UCSC is currently third place with 760,691 points. There are currently 25 teams representing colleges, departments, and units on campus.
Some sustainable actions you can take to earn points include reducing your computer power usage, going meatless for a day, and attending a sustainability event. Also, participants have the option to create an action if it is not currently listed.
