Green Award

What are the AS Recycling Green Awards?

The Green Awards are an evaluation of each department’s effort in reducing waste and conserving energy on the UCSB campus. 

Yearly, a survey is given out to every department with questions about the recycling and energy conservation behavior of each individual member of that department.

This survey is not meant for the students, but for the people who work and share the offices and buildings on campus.

Professors, Teaching Assistants, and Staff members alike are encouraged to fill out the survey.

The Green Awards are not just a way to congratulate departments that have both feet forward in a greener world, but to educate those who do not, and to air out any complaints that we, as the UCSB AS Recycling Program, can help to mend.

Past winners include:
Communications Department, Geography Department, Computer Science, Office of Student Life, Environmental Studies, and The Bren School

Winners receive recognition in the AS Recycling Website, 93106, KCSB 91.9FM, and the Daily Nexus, as well as an award presented to your department from one of our own Recycling staff.

Get out there, Recycle your office pack, change your light bulbs, turn off your computers and fill out the Survey! Let’s make 2008-2009 the most competitive year yet!
