When moving to campus, coordinate with your roommates to avoid bringing duplicate items. Fewer appliances and electronics means more energy saved!
Are your leftovers really worth it? Defrost and unplug your mini fridge and other appliances before break periods to conserve electricity.
This dorm isn't big enough for the two of them; if you have a unit with a kitchen, put it to some good use, save energy, and leave your mini fridge at home!
Combination MicroFridges have it all! They're more energy efficient, cost effective, and safer to use than a separate microwave and fridge. And we weren't paid to say that!
Yeah cardboard boxes are great and all, but have you tried moving into your dorm with plastic bins? They're sturdier and reusable!
Save your money, gas, and planet by taking the shuttle, walking, or biking to Downtown Bethlehem instead of driving.
Planning ahead can work towards saving the planet. Schedule your classes and office hours in a way that minimizes the number of trips you make to campus.
Walking and biking are great ways to get to campus without using fossil fuels. They're also great ways to stay healthy!
Tired of not being able to find a parking space? Reduce emissions and the number of cars in the lot by carpooling with another faculty or staff member.
Keep your car up to snuff with routine maintenance in order to reduce repairs and be more fuel efficient.
Going to Downtown Bethlehem? So is the shuttle! Use it instead of driving to save gas and money.
Use less energy by turning the temperature lower in the winter and higher in the summer.
Batten down the hatches! Close all doors and windows while using hot or cool air.
Going away for an extended amount of time? If it isn't necessary, turn off air conditioning and heating in your home to save energy.
Who says your outside fashion needs to change when you're inside? Dress for the weather when you're indoors to become less reliant on heating and cooling.
Wash it all! A full load of wash reduces energy and water usage.
Clotheslines and drying racks are excellent alternatives to using dryers. They also don't need electricity!
Use cold water when doing your laundry. Not only will it save energy, but it might prevent your red shirt from turning your white socks pink.
Clean out the lint screen before using a dryer. It helps with the machine's effectiveness and reduces the risk of the whole thing setting on fire. Doing laundry is bad enough without needing a fire extinguisher.
