Welcome Back !

G'day everyone and welcome back to USC for 2007!

The USC Environment Collective has a number projects on the agenda this year. But first of all, we need to get together. The USCEnvCol meeting place is hosted by the Student Guild, out the back in the garden area.
Post up what times suit you for a regular meeting place and we'll agree on a time to get together.

This blog is for you to post events, issues, philosophies and ideas concerned with the environment. Check it regularly to find out what's going on. And by all means, if you know of a workshop, festival, or you'd like to start something, ... POST IT POST IT POST IT

USC markets itself as an environmentaly friendly university but there are heaps of things the uni can be doing to make it much more sustainable. Such as changing all the paper to recycled paper. The University of Queensland EnvCol has successfully pushed for recycled paper on campus. So let's do the same!
We ran a petition to introduce recycled toilet paper last year. It was knocked back. So we'll run another petition again.

Myself, Kate Greenwood and Byron Lawrie are very busy this year and we are calling for people to become actively involved in the collective and make a difference.

I look forward to seeing you and meeting new faces in the near future :)
