Goals and Aspirations

For this year, I want to be able to know that I have changed how I personally have an impact on the environment. My goal is to end up conscious of how I dispose of products I no longer use, either through recycling, composting, or even through donating to organizations that put the products to good use. I am hoping this community will also rub off on the student body a little, even if it just makes them stop and think before they toss their garbage. I am also hoping that eventually, the compost box will be out grown. My family at home maintains a compost pile thrice the size of the compost pile for the campus of UNC. Hopefully, some of the mentalities of our community will spread beyond the community alone.
