The leaves are finally changing, signifying fall on the University of Louisville Campus. Regardless of the change in weather, and fascination with everything pumpkin, the university’s sustainability council aims to keep the campus green.

Oct. 19-25 shall mark the eighth annual Sustainability Week. The campus-wide event raises awareness for sustainable energy, organic food alternatives and healthy lifestyle practices for students. Initially, the event was a single day of the year. It now boasts 19 events over a full week and hosts events such as a bike maintenance workshop, a farmers market and a sustainability fair.
