Green Student U
http://www.greenstudentu.com/
The topics of global warming, pollution, alternative energy sources, fuel-efficiency and more continue to show up in the news and media, so it’s important for college students to know how they can become involved in the green movement. That’s why Green Student University was created. We offer valuable green information and stay up-to-date with the latest green topics to teach college students about sustainable living practices and worldwide green events.
College students are an important target audience because the habits and world views that they establish today will provide them with the tools they need for their future. By informing students of up-to-date ecological concerns and providing the advice they need to tackle these concerns, Green Student U will help advance the green movement for both current and future generations.
We offer a comprehensive green guide on a wide variety of environmental topics that include:
(1) Eco-Lifestyle
(2) Stories & Successes
(3) Our World Today
(4) Green Campus
(5) Encyclopedia
