Eco-Hero Nominations extended until April 14th!

Who's the Eco-Hero in your life? Is it your mailperson, for turning off their mail truck so it isn't idling while they make deliveries? Is it your neighbor, for watering their plants only in the morning or evenings, when water use is most efficient? Or is it you, who try to take the stairs instead of the elevator?

You now have until Thursday, April 14th to recognize the people you know who make these small changes towards living more sustainably. Because small changes do make a difference, and they do add up to saving natural resources, reducing greenhouse gases, and saving money! And now, making a small change, or even taking the VCU Sustainability Pledge, can win you an Amazon Kindle, free digital movies & ebooks, and much more!

Follow these simple steps to nominate yourself or someone else in the Richmond community as an Eco-Hero on Facebook or Twitter. Don't have an account, or stuck following the directions? Email mcv.earth.week@gmail.com and we'll post your entry for you.
