Partying for a Sustainable Tomorrow During Earth Week
The earth is important—right? This seems universally agreed upon, no matter politics or religion or lifestyle choices. Without the earth, humanity would cease to exist. Starting April 10, the University of Utah is helping to celebrate the planet. What better way to celebrate than with a party?
The Party on the Plaza was centered around off-campus and on-campus groups whose missions involve the three pillars of sustainability: environmental, economic and social equity.
Campus police handed out bike locks for free to any who register their bikes as part of a new initiative called lock it or lose it. It’s quite the catchy title—so long as everyone remains on the “lock it” side of the bargain.
