The Campus Natural Reserve provides many opportunities for internships and student projects involving everything plants, animals, forest ecology, restoration and stewardship. They are currently in the process of creating a <a href="https://ucsc.maps.arcgis.com/apps/Shortlist/index.html?appid=5d13175cc8364eefa1b9125316008e03">Story Map</a> and <a href="https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1dW6GbvfzlyV8O_veasbAWvUnsHOCjuXKz4oB0Xt0TEc/edit?ts=5bf46fcd#slide=id.g485167e23c_0_1032">slideshow</a> that provides information of all of the experiential learning opportunities and best stewardship practices here at UC Santa Cruz.<br />
<br />
The UCSC Campus Living Lab <a href="https://ucsc.maps.arcgis.com/apps/Shortlist/index.html?appid=5d13175cc8364eefa1b9125316008e03">online map</a> was created in response to the Campus Sustainability Plan's Action 4.3A which was to develop new materials to promote experiential learning, and Action 5.3A which is establishing a base line for formal and informal engagement opportunities. UCSC undergraduates Jon-Mychal Cox and Sarina Sylavong and UCSC Campus Natural Reserve manager Alex Jones used the paper Campus Living Lab map developed by the Sustainability Office as a starting point. They utilized UCSC ESRI's Story Map platform to design a <a href="https://ucsc.maps.arcgis.com/apps/Shortlist/index.html?appid=5d13175cc8364eefa1b9125316008e03">"living" map</a> to document many of UCSC's living labs.<br />
<br />
The map includes a variety of on-campus organizations and programs within several categories: Agroecology, Design and Engineering, Environmental Education, Environmental Justice and Sustainability, UCSC Natural Reserves, and Stewardship and Natural History. Some labs include the Alan Chadwick Garden, Arboretum and Botanic Garden, and Forest Ecology Research Plot. Each living lab is mapped geographically on an interactive map and includes a program description and information about ways for students to get involved. </div>

This interdisciplinary minor is designed for students who are interested in working in the sustainability field, green entrepreneurships and startups, and want to be a part of the change to protect the environment in an equitable way. It offers a model for new undergraduate curriculum that emphasizes the central academic role of UCSC's college system. This is open to all UCSC students!<br />
<br /><b>The curriculum is structured to:</b>(i) facilitate interdisciplinary academic and research collaborations among faculty and students across multiple UCSC divisions (drawing on but outside of the divisional structure)<br />
<br />(ii) teach and train students to apply entrepreneurial design skills to the ecology and sustainability of design and application in the built environment, and combine STEM skills and social science knowledge to these ends<br />
<br />(iii) meet undergraduate demand for a sustainability curriculum with focuses distinct from those offered in existing UCSC departments<br />
<br />(iv) prepare students for professional careers in sustainability and entrepreneurship<br />
<br />The minor is designed to be a complement to students’ majors, allowing them to broaden their applied skills and knowledge, and their ability to analyze and understand complex systems and their interactions through society and the environment. The minor will provide skills useful for work with non-profits, government agencies, small businesses and startups. Businesses are increasingly interested in sustainability and specific positions are difficult to fill. Institutions of higher education, government agencies and others are also seeking staff with expertise in sustainability.<br />
<br />
<b>Learning objectives:</b>Through the program’s learning objectives, students will:<br />
<br />1. Understand the causes, features, data, complexities, policies and practices giving rise to and needed to address the contemporary global socioecological crisis; the role of production, consumption, politics, policies, markets and behavior in this crisis; and options and alternatives for moving toward and achieving sustainability.<br />
<br />2. Learn basic applied STEM skills needed for dealing with real-world applications including assessments, measurements, technologies, behavior and other factors related to objective<br /><br />
3. Become cognizant of appropriate social science knowledge and methods needed to design and implement social enterprise and service learning projects in sustainability and ecological design and practice.<br />
<br />4. Design and conduct interdisciplinary research projects in issues and topics that are related to sustainability, including energy, food, water, the built environment, life-cycle analysis, waste disposal and recycling.<br /><br />
5. Design and participate in service-learning projects in collaboration with on- and off-campus units, agencies and organizations, and apply the knowledge and skills acquired through the minor.<br />

<span style="font-family: arial; font-size: 12pt; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: arial; font-size: 12pt; white-space: pre-wrap;">When you move out at the end of the quarter, it may seem generous to leave unwanted items on the sidewalk with a “FREE” sign. Unfortunately, this material often ends up in our waterways, green spaces, the bay, or in landfills. Instead, try the following for a smooth move out:</span><br />
<span style="font-family: arial; font-size: 12pt; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></span>
<ul style="margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<li><span style="font-family: "arial"; font-size: 12pt; white-space: pre-wrap;">Stop purchasing items that you use infrequently. Common items in the trash during move out include partially used condiments, cereal, pasta and other packaged food.</span></li>
</ul>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "arial";"><span style="white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></span></span></div>
<ul style="margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<li><span style="font-family: "arial"; font-size: 12pt; white-space: pre-wrap;">Pack up and move early. Pack items that you don’t use every day and move them early. Moving items early means the rest of your stuff has a better chance of fitting into your car.</span></li>
</ul>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "arial";"><span style="white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></span></span></div>
<ul style="margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<li><span style="font-family: "arial"; font-size: 12pt; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Swap or sell items online. To offer your unwanted items for free or for sale, list them on </span><a href="https://groups.freecycle.org/group/SantaCruzCountyFreecycle/posts/all" style="font-family: arial; font-size: 12pt; text-decoration-line: none; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="color: #1155cc; font-family: "arial"; font-size: 12pt; vertical-align: baseline;">Freecycle</span></a><span style="font-family: "arial"; font-size: 12pt; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">, </span><a href="http://sfbay.craigslist.org/scz/" style="font-family: arial; font-size: 12pt; text-decoration-line: none; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="color: #1155cc; font-family: "arial"; font-size: 12pt; vertical-align: baseline;">Craigslist</span></a><span style="font-family: "arial"; font-size: 12pt; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">, or </span><a href="https://nextdoor.com/find-neighborhood/ca/santa-cruz/" style="font-family: arial; font-size: 12pt; text-decoration-line: none; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="color: #1155cc; font-family: "arial"; font-size: 12pt; vertical-align: baseline;">Next Door Santa Cruz</span></a><span style="font-family: "arial"; font-size: 12pt; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">.</span></li>
</ul>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "arial";"><span style="white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></span></span></div>
<ul style="margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<li><span style="font-family: "arial"; font-size: 12pt; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Donate unwanted items to a local charity. Only do this if your items are in good condition. Many charities are unable to take items that are ripped, stained, broken, bent, frayed, or worn. This is especially true for bulky items such as couches, mattresses, desks, and dining room tables. For more information, check </span><a href="http://www.scgoodwill.org/" style="font-family: arial; font-size: 12pt; text-decoration-line: none; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="color: #1155cc; font-family: "arial"; font-size: 12pt; vertical-align: baseline;">Goodwill’s online site </span></a><span style="font-family: "arial"; font-size: 12pt; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">or </span><a href="http://www.hopeservices.org/" style="font-family: arial; font-size: 12pt; text-decoration-line: none; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="color: #1155cc; font-family: "arial"; font-size: 12pt; vertical-align: baseline;">Hope Services</span></a><span style="font-family: "arial"; font-size: 12pt; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">.</span></li>
</ul>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "arial";"><span style="white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></span></span></div>
<ul style="margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<li><span style="font-family: "arial"; font-size: 12pt; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Recycle early. Recycle carts overflow during move out, so clear out extra papers and accumulated bottles and cans early or visit a local recycling drop off center for additional recycling. For a current list of acceptable items visit </span><span style="color: #1155cc; font-family: "arial"; font-size: 12pt; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><a href="http://www.cityofsantacruz.com/recycleright" style="text-decoration-line: none;">www.cityofsantacruz.com/recycleright</a></span></li>
</ul>
<div>
<br /></div>
<ul style="margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<li><span style="font-family: "arial"; font-size: 12pt; white-space: pre-wrap;">Recycle special and household hazardous waste responsibly. To recycle household chemicals likebathroom cleaners, nail polish, aerosol cans (not empty), bleach, disinfectants and a whole list of other items go to the Household Hazardous Waste Facility on Dimeo Lane. Open Saturdays 7:30AM-3:30PM. </span></li>
</ul>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "arial";"><span style="white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></span></span></div>
<ul style="margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<li><span style="font-family: "arial"; font-size: 12pt; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">As a last resort, for bulky items that can no longer be reused, schedule a pickup with the city of Santa Cruz in the month of June: These pickups are only for large bulky items that will be taken to the landfill. This includes mattresses, box springs, couches, and living-room chairs. To arrange a pickup, </span><a href="http://www.cityofsantacruz.com/ucscmoveout" style="font-family: arial; font-size: 12pt; text-decoration-line: none; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="color: #1155cc; font-family: "arial"; font-size: 12pt; vertical-align: baseline;">register online</span></a><span style="font-family: "arial"; font-size: 12pt; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> with the city of Santa Cruz after May 27. If you register for a bulky item pick-up, you will receive a free large pizza coupon for Woodstock’s pizza!</span></li>
</ul>

<br />
Cool Campus Challenge is officially over! Throughout the month of April, students, faculty and staff across UC campuses participated in the challenge to see who can complete the most sustainable and environmental-friendly actions. The goal of this challenge is to reduce carbon footprint and achieve carbon neutrality by 2025.<br />
<br />
UC Santa Cruz has demonstrated a huge effort in spreading outreach about the challenge. With everyone's valuable participation, we have acquired a total of <b>3,707,790</b> points putting us in <b>5th</b> place amongst the UC campuses, and beating UC Davis by just a few actions. As a campus, we have completed <b>15,355</b> actions and reduced <b>1,756,542 </b>pounds of CO2. Overall, we acquired the most actions and the most points per participant.<br />
<br />

We had 36 teams across, and Team OChem has won first place with<b> 898,963</b> points. Caitlin Binder, faculty in the Chemistry & Biochemistry Department, created a team for her organic chemistry students to learn about sustainable actions they can take to reduce their footprint. Caitlin's team got UCSC 24% of our points!<br />
<br />
OChem was the only team in the whole UC System that got more points than the combination of all "no team" participants.<br />

From going zero waste for a day, to taking alternative transportation to work, to installing clothes lines to hang dry clothes, banana slugs have been working hard throughout this month to reduce their emissions. Together, we are all taking steps towards making the world a better place.<br />
<br />
Thank you for your participation and for your contribution towards our campus becoming more sustainable!<br />

Each month, our newsletter features a person or group on
campus that is working toward a more sustainable world. This month we had the
privilege to interview Sarina Sylavong, a Senior who has worked many
positions at the sustainability office: Green Labs Program, InterOrg team
coordinator, Green Labs Program Facilitator, and Student Task
Force. While she is a great member of our team, we are happy to see her
graduate. We wish her the best in her future and hope that the Sustainability
Office has given her the resources to succeed in her upcoming career. Congrats
Grad of 2019! <o:p></o:p></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
1. What's your favorite memory working at the Sustainability
Office?<o:p></o:p></div>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-N4TB81ZAGpc/XK5Wwq8aJ2I/AAAAAAAAAW0/0HPKWwyLF7Y_hnB9p7MaMf2dAQBVdMHrwCLcBGAs/s1600/Sarina.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="412" data-original-width="360" height="320" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-N4TB81ZAGpc/XK5Wwq8aJ2I/AAAAAAAAAW0/0HPKWwyLF7Y_hnB9p7MaMf2dAQBVdMHrwCLcBGAs/s320/Sarina.jpg" width="279" /></a>"Some of my favorite memories consisted of everyone in
the office taking the time to say hello and catching up on life, school, and
work no matter how stressed or busy they were; laughing with everyone in the
office about the most ridiculous things that we could possibly think of;
sharing snacks, lunch, or some coffee and tea, and building connections with
some of the most hardworking but also the most concerning people I have ever
met. I have built some long-lasting connections with the people I have worked
with here at the Sustainability Office, both staff and student alike. And
that’s something I will never forget." <span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span></blockquote>
<div class="MsoNormal">
2. What is something you recommend to interns at the
Sustainability Office? <o:p></o:p></div>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
"I have always been indifferent on giving
recommendations seeing as I never listen to my own, but here’s what I do
recommend to interns:<br />
· Google what sustainability
means - it may take a while but take the time to find what sustainability means
to you and how it relates to your career and life goals. It took me three years
to discover this meaning for myself.<br />
· Understand how environmental
justice and sustainability are interdependent and how both are necessary to
obtaining sustainable and equitable environments for all<br />
· Get sh*t done and have fun
with it, but make sure to get it done.<br />
· It gets stressful - the
meetings, the unorganized ideas, the purchase orders, the outreaching. Don’t be
afraid to ask for help especially when you need it, you’ll be surprised how
many people will be willing to give you a hand, a snack, coffee, and the
emotional support that you never thought you needed.<br />
· I recommend getting to
know everyone in the office, and you can do that by taking the time to say hi
to someone you haven’t spoken to yet and ask how they’re doing. I also
recommend learning about the entire office, what the Sustainability Office
stands for, and the goals of each team. Someone might ask you one day.<br />
· Do your research and continue
to do so "</blockquote>
<div class="MsoNormal">
3. What does sustainability mean to you? Have your views of
sustainability changed in the four years that you have been working at the
Sustainability Office?<o:p></o:p></div>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
“The first time I came across the word “sustainability” is
when I googled it two days before my first interview for the Sustainability
Office, only to realize it was something that I have known for years. The idea
of sustainability to me has morphed into the memories of my grandma’s backyard
garden full of grapefruits, Thai chili peppers, lemons, Mentha spicate,
kabocha, and mandarins that she would share with friends and family. It was the
countless years my grandma would remind me to separate my food scraps for the
compost that she used in the garden. It was the days I got excited just to see
my grandpa during work at the recycling center, the place I associated with
earning allowance for the month, not realizing I was contributing to the
preservation of resources already available to society and reducing the impact
of processing more of these resources. Institutionally, I also understand
sustainability as this compendium of several initiatives surrounding the ideas
of social justice and inclusion, climate and carbon neutrality, agroecology and
food systems, zero waste, water conservation, land management, and behavior and
education.”</blockquote>

“I attended my first InterOrg Retreat as a freshman where I
built great connections with alumni and grew to love the organization I was
working for. After that first year, I helped plan three more InterOrg Retreats
and have since seen the program grow. I looked forward to InterOrg every single
year. It was the best way to open myself to other sustainability orgs all over
campus and their experiences. I loved being able to get away from school for
just one weekend and develop deeper connections with the people around me,
while also addressing some of the most pressing issues of the time. And when we
weren’t planning on fighting the patriarchy, I loved jamming with all of the
folks at InterOrg Open Mic/Talent Show with my uke.”</blockquote>

5. What were your favorite roles in positions in the office?<o:p></o:p></div>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
“One of my favorite roles that I have had in the office was
participating in the Planning Programming Committee for the 2017
Inter-Organizational Retreat. This was my favorite position because I was
mentored by an exemplary supervisor, Melissa Ott-Fant, who took the time to
commend me for all my hard work and saw my commitment to helping her and
everyone else. As someone who was still having difficulty understanding their
role in the office at the time, I felt like I was finally able to positively
contribute to a project."</blockquote>
<div class="MsoNormal">
6. What teams were you in while working at the sustainability
office and what was your current position? <o:p></o:p></div>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
“The first team I worked with was the Green Labs Program
which aims to increase energy efficiency, reduce waste, and encourage green
procurement in laboratories. I came in as an intern my freshman year, became
outreach coordinator the next, and ended my position as Green Labs Program
Facilitator. I also participated in the planning committees for 2017, 2018, and
2019 InterOrg Retreats, where I worked in the programming committee to
determine themes, agendas, keynote speakers, event activities, supplies, and
most importantly workshops! This academic school year, Elida Erickson appointed
me to the Student Task Force team to help spearhead the purchase of new
computers, supplies, and office furniture for the S.O. Despite my titles, I
have been able to work alongside every team in the office, helping them in any
way I possibly could. It’s been one hell of an adventure.”<span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span></blockquote>
<div class="MsoNormal">
7. While working in the office have you received any training,
opportunities, or events that have helped you in your major or future jobs? If
so, which are they?<o:p></o:p></div>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
“Through my work at the S.O, I have learned how to
effectively facilitate a meeting, how to properly and professionally send an
email, learned some great organizational and time management skills,
familiarized myself with my best friends Microsoft Excel and Google Sheets, and
pushed myself to step out of my comfort zone to outreach to people I normally
wouldn’t have. I also gained experience in grant writing, sustainable
management, sustainable procurement, and energy efficiency.”</blockquote>
<div class="MsoNormal">
8. What are you doing after graduation? <o:p></o:p></div>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
“I have one more quarter left before I graduate! Before I
do, I will be going on an intensive field course based at the UC Santa Cruz
Reserves (Año Nuevo, Younger Lagoon, Campus Natural Reserve, and Big Sur) and
the islands of Baja California Sur. After graduation, I hope to head to Santa
Barbara for two years to see what the workforce has in store for me. And when
the time is right, I will apply for my masters in Energy Policy and Climate
and/or Environmental Science and Management."</blockquote>
<div class="MsoNormal">
9. Is there something you would like UCSC students to know
about the Sustainability office? <o:p></o:p></div>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
“Yes, I want students to know that the S.O is freaking
awesome. The Sustainability Office has blessed me with some amazing
opportunities and connections, such as a paid trip to Boston, Massachusetts to
attend the International Institute for Sustainable Laboratories (I2SL)! I also
want students to know that the S.O has some of the most awesome staff members
who go out of their way to support you, give you school, life, and career advice,
and have the most contagious laughs.” </blockquote>
<div class="MsoNormal">
10. Tell me about your background and how you became part of
UCSC?<o:p></o:p></div>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
“I grew up in a low-income community in Fresno,
California where I was raised by the strong women in my life and my
grandfather. I graduated from Edison High School and the Environmental Science
Lab at the Center for Advanced Research and Technology (CART). I was the
stereotypical marching band geek, had a short-lived interest in theatre, but
mainly loved my conservation work as a Forest Ecology intern and U.S. Forest
Service Geology Crew intern. My sophomore year of high school I was set on
coming to UC Santa Cruz to study Environmental Studies and Biology. Two years
later I got into the university and became a banana slug.” <span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span></blockquote>
<div class="MsoNormal">
11. Tell me how you became part of the UCSC Sustainability
Office?<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
“It’s a secret.” </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
12. What organizations did you connect with other than the
sustainability office?<o:p></o:p></div>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
“Aside from the Sustainability Office, I worked with the
Campus Natural Reserve (CNR) leading interns on the Forest Ecology Research
Plot (FERP) to aid in the five-year recensus of 28,000 woody species to
understand the phenology and dynamics of the forest. I also interned for the
Campus Natural Reserve Stewardship where I worked with my good bud Cactus on
planning and implementing restoration and trail maintenance projects such as
invasive species removal, erosion control, forest trash cleanups, and installation/removal
of fences and signs. When I wasn’t working on conservation and sustainability
efforts, I was drumming with the UC Santa Cruz West Javanese Gamelan ensemble.
Shout out to those dudes.”</blockquote>

<a href="https://www.coolcampuschallenge.org/">Cool Campus Challenge 2019</a> has begun!<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
<a href="https://www.coolcampuschallenge.org/blog_entry/4">UCSC's Cool Campus Challenge Team</a> 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.<br />
<br />
UCSC is currently third place with 760,691 points. There are currently 25 teams representing colleges, departments, and units on campus.<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
Sign up for the challenge <a href="https://www.coolcampuschallenge.org/">here</a>.<br />

Make sure to register at </span><a href="https://www.coolcampuschallenge.org/" style="text-decoration: none;"><span style="background-color: transparent; color: #1155cc; font-family: "arial"; font-size: 12pt; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: underline; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">CoolCampusChallenge.org</span></a><span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: "arial"; font-size: 12pt; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> to start competing! Here are 10 easy actions you can take:</span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: "arial"; font-size: 12pt; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></span>
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: "arial"; font-size: 12pt; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">1. <b>Reduce your computer power usage.</b> Computer equipment can take up to 10 percent of office energy usage. Make that your computer has its energy saving features activated: </span><span style="background-color: white; color: #1155cc; font-family: "arial"; font-size: 12pt; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><a href="http://tinyurl.com/obuwdcf" style="background-color: white; font-family: arial; font-size: 12pt; text-decoration-line: none; white-space: pre-wrap;">http://tinyurl.com/obuwdcf</a></span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: "arial"; font-size: 12pt; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></span>
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: "arial"; font-size: 12pt; white-space: pre-wrap;">2. <b>Dress for the weather.</b> Wearing layers allows you to rely on fashion, rather than fossil fuels, to regulate your body temperature. Make each layer a fashion statement! Be an example for others by showing your friends how you layer up.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial"; font-size: 12pt; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial"; font-size: 12pt; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="background-color: white;">3. </span><b>Turn off your overhead light.</b> </span><span style="background-color: white; font-family: "arial"; font-size: 12pt; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Open your shades and blinds every day to maximize natural light in your home and workspace. Rather than using an overhead light, try a task light — with an LED bulb for an extra energy-saving boost. Good lighting is important for healthy eyes, but workplace lighting can be overkill. Natural light is best for you and the planet.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial"; font-size: 12pt; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial"; font-size: 12pt; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="background-color: white;">4. </span><b>Sort your waste properly.</b> Recycling and composting properly helps reduce greenhouse gas emissions related to production and decomposition. Waste requirements vary by location, so make sure to check what your campus, workplace and municipal waste disposal accepts.</span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: "arial"; font-size: 12pt; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></span>
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: "arial"; font-size: 12pt; white-space: pre-wrap;">5. <b>Use a power strip.</b> Vampire power, phantom loads or ghost loads — whatever you want to call it, your electronic devices are quietly sucking your power. Plug your electronics into an easily accessible power strip. Turn it off when those items aren't being used.</span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: "arial"; font-size: 12pt; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></span>
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: "arial"; font-size: 12pt; white-space: pre-wrap;">6. <b>Take the stairs.</b> Walking up or down the stairs instead of taking an elevator is typically faster and saves energy. If you are able, why not take the stairs next time you leave the building? A bonus: Physical activity lowers stress.</span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: "arial"; font-size: 12pt; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></span>
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: "arial"; font-size: 12pt; white-space: pre-wrap;">7. <b>Close the doors and windows.</b> If you're using a heater or AC, close the doors and windows. This will speed the warming or cooling process, while reducing energy waste.</span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: "arial"; font-size: 12pt; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></span>
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: "arial"; font-size: 12pt; white-space: pre-wrap;">8. <b>Turn off your monitor when you’re away.</b> Set your computer monitor to turn off automatically when you're away for more than 10 minutes, or shut it off manually when you're done or taking a break.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial"; font-size: 12pt; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial"; font-size: 12pt; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="background-color: white;">9. </span><b>Learn how to report water waste and leaks.</b> Every drop counts. Help save water by reporting leaky faucets, sprinklers, toilets and other water waste. If you live on campus, report leaks to</span><span style="color: #1155cc; font-family: "arial"; font-size: 12pt; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> </span><a href="https://fixit.sa.ucsc.edu/" style="font-family: arial; font-size: 12pt; text-decoration-line: none; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="color: #1155cc; font-family: "arial"; font-size: 12pt; vertical-align: baseline;">https://fixit.sa.ucsc.edu/</span></a><span style="color: #1155cc; font-family: "arial"; font-size: 12pt; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial"; font-size: 12pt; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial"; font-size: 12pt; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">10. <b>Go meatless for a day.</b> According to </span><a href="https://www.earthday.org/" style="font-family: arial; font-size: 12pt; text-decoration-line: none; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="color: #1155cc; font-family: "arial"; font-size: 12pt; vertical-align: baseline;">EarthDay.org</span></a><span style="font-family: "arial"; font-size: 12pt; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">, if the entire U.S. did not eat meat or cheese for just one day a week, it would be the equivalent of not driving 91 billion miles — or taking 7.6 million cars off the road! Also consider choosing local and organic foods to further reduce your environmental impact.</span><br />

In support of UC’s Carbon Neutrality Initiative, the University is soliciting ideas from members of the UC community for off-campus projects that reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions or sequester carbon. Under <a href="https://ucop.edu/carbon-neutrality-initiative/index.html" style="color: #954f72;" target="_blank">UC’s Carbon Neutrality Initiative</a>, the UC system has committed to reducing its net GHGs from its operations to zero by 2025. Excellent progress has been made to make our buildings more efficient and switch to renewable and clean energy supplies. To help UC bring its emissions all the way down to zero, we are seeking two types of projects:<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt;">
1) <b>UC-initiated offset projects</b>: UC seeks to build a portfolio of potential offset projects originating from UC research and educational programs, and is exploring the viability of supporting those projects with payments based on GHG emissions reductions achieved. UC is currently offering awards of up to $70,000 to help bring selected projects closer to implementation. Proposals are due by May 31, 2019.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt;">
2) <b>Projects already on the carbon offset market</b>: UC is looking for recommendations from faculty, staff, and students for projects currently available on the voluntary offset market that meaningfully reduce emissions and are otherwise sustainable. Recommendations will be reviewed as they are submitted.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt;">
We are particularly seeking offset projects that contribute to UC’s mission by expanding or applying university research, offering educational opportunities, advancing understanding of climate solutions, providing health and social justice benefits, and directly benefiting the UC community and surrounding communities.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt;">
Based on preliminary conversations with faculty researchers throughout the system, we have high expectations that this offset program will further demonstrate the University of California’s collective power to lead in generating replicable climate change solutions.<o:p></o:p></div>
