2)Post large, central, easy-to-read display boards or signs instead of distributing programs.

2)Cut up old T-shirts that are unsuitable for donation, but can be used as cleaning rags.
Recycle
1) Include recycling logos on event posters to remind others to recycle the posters when the event is done!
2)Place recycling bins at the entrance of the events so that participants can recycle before they enter the event and at the exits also
We are doing great everyone! Keep it up!
Reuse
ReplyDelete1. Save a t-shirt from each event then at the end of the year use them to make a "quilt" you can hang to display past events.
2. Use old cd's as decorations near lights, this will make a everything glow!
Recycle
1. Host an informational recycling event, where students can learn what you can recycle, and they can bring items to be recycled. Then the items can be picked up by a facility ... reducing the number of trips if they were to be called separately.
REDUCE
ReplyDelete1. Use recylced products for giveaways and shirts to reduce the amount of waste
2. Try e-mailing reminders and using powerpoints instead of printing out a lot of papers to reduce wasting paper.
REUSE
1. You can cut up old flyers and posters to make confetti and table decorations.
2. Old flyers can also be taped together to be cool backgrounds and boarders on poster boards.
RECYLCE
1. Make sure the recylcing symbol is placed on all flyers and posters as a friendly reminder to recycle the poster when the event is over.
2. Make sure that recylcing bins are at all of your events so that attendees will have a place to conveniently recylce.
