How far does energy ‘nice’ go?

It’s up to you!

We challenge you to be a part of the conservation effort across VIU–because hey, even your lights and devices need a break!

Take a moment to see where you can save a little energy,  then let us know what you were able to turn off or even unplug over the Christmas break.

It’s easy!

Mark October 4 in your calendar!

Check out interactive booths to find out what’s happening with sustainability here on campus and in the community!

The VIU Farmers’ Market will be open too–so come by, buy some veggies, win some swag and find out how you can be part of sustainable action!

Looking forward to —
