Are you looking to promote zero waste on campus or in the community? Campus advocates can sign up for our zero waste training and events by filling out this form. If you'd like to get involved in the City of Albany’s efforts, then Zero Waste Capital District has what you are looking for. This group meets every 4th Monday on zoom, and are currently working on promoting the Albany Composting program and research Food Rescue opportunities. Their next meeting is November 22nd. To contact them email: info@zerowastecd.org. This group also works closely with the City of Albany’s Sustainability Committee. This committee has several subcommittees and welcomes members of the campus community to join. The committees’ next meeting is on December 2nd at 6 pm and can be viewed live via the Albany Office of Energy and Sustainability Facebook page.

Support Sustainability!

Each year, the Tuesday after Thanksgiving has been designated Giving Tuesday. It is a time when people can consider donating to the causes they feel most strongly about. UAlbany Sustainability is no exception. We have established a Sustainability Fund that supports our Eco-Rep peer educators program and Operation Weatherize (see related story on page 8). If you’d like to support these efforts, you can do so by visiting this website.
