Green Girls Month 1 (actually!) by Aimee

This month, Green Girls held our first event of the year. All of us went out for dinner to discuss our plan of action over sushi. It was a fun way for all of us to hang out and discuss our green ideas.

Essentially, this month we were still trying to get our bearings and evaluate our own habits. We took a look at our own recycling habits, water consumption, and energy consumption. While some of us are ahead of others in terms of implementing more green habits, we are now all ready to move forward and begin our plan of action.

We are all very pleased with our group dynamic and how well we work together. Everyone is open to constructive criticism from other members to help the success of our program. We intend to hold another dinner in the near future to figure out a local event we could host and to hear about everyone’s individual progress thus far. The Green Girls are very pleased with the new water fountain the fourth floor of Vanderbilt received because we now have a practical means of filling up our reusable water bottles instead of being forced to resort to plastic water bottles. However, this is just one of the many changes we hope to see on campus! The Green Girls are off to a great start and we have high expectations for ourselves this year!

xox,
Aimee and the Green Girls
