The initiative promotes a greener and cleaner environment on the campus and in surrounding areas. It will be used as a tool to increase environmental awareness and to maintain the sense of pride and responsibility we share for the environment.
The project is ongoing and will continuously promote preservation of the earth throughout each academic year.Participants will receive free door prizes and Keep ASU Beautiful tee-shirts. Lunch will be served at the completion of the campus clean-up activities.
In addition to the opening ceremony, other activities scheduled for the initiative include:
Adopt-A-Zone:
Throughout the year, campus organizations will promote and maintain a clean environment by making sure its designated zone stays clear of heavy waste materials. The organization will also have a sign with its group name placed in the adopted area.
