Ecolympics! Campus Conservation Nationals
Feb. 9 to March 1
Live on campus? Help the Cards to victory with conservation! UofL will compete to reduce electricity use in residence halls during the 2015 Campus Conservation Nationals. Over three weeks, we'll need your help to achieve the greatest possible energy reductions in your hall. All you have to do is stop wasting energy! Turn off lights/TVs/computers; unplug anything you're not actively using; skip the elevator for the stairs; close windows tightly; dry clothes on a rack/line; take quick showers or shower with solar power at the SRC; etc. Join us on Facebook.

Residents: Log your actions for sustainability and win prizes at MyActions.org!

Make a personal commitment to reduce and keep track of each hall's progress with UofL's Building Dashboard! Click on the links below to see how much electricity your hall is using and to make a commitment to conserve!

The UofL residence hall which cuts electricity use the most will win a special dinner catered by Mark's Feed Store and a "Green Make-Over" renovation for their hall!

The Kentucky school with the greatest percentage reduction will take home the Bluegrass Unplugged trophy! 2015 rivals include Berea College, University of Kentucky, and Western Kentucky University.
