Earth Day at CEU

earth daySustainable CEU held their annual Earth Day event on Friday afternoon. Represented among others, was the Satyor organic vegetable box scheme, Ecoservice, Messzelato, and Treehugger Dan's with Vedegylet. We served up free Fair Trade organic coffee and tea to the students and teachers, while explaining Fair Trade to anyone that inquired. There was also a craft table for making otherwise unrecyclable aeseptic brick drink cartons into wallets, and a couple lovely ladies dressed up in Earth costumes wearing "hug me!" signs. Sustainable CEU might also consider as goals for next year, working to get rid of the styrofoam cups at the bufe, and installing water fountains and cold water taps (currently only hot water) in the bathrooms so people can have access to drinking water without having to buy a throwaway plastic bottle .
