ZERO Waste MOVE OUT! Let's do this!

Housing*Dining*Hospitality would like to remind you.....

Please watch the attached 'Room Raiders' video clip made by the
Housing*Dining*Hospitality EcoNauts.
It is a demonstration on how to have a Zero-waste move-out!

Most of your move-out items are reusable or recyclable!

*Reusable items (clothes, books, furniture, household appliances, and anything with a cord/working/non-working electronics) go into the white Disabled American Veteran (DAV) donation bins located in all six colleges and the Village.

All electronic waste (ink cartridges, batteries) can go in as well.

*All Recyclables (paper, bluebooks, newspaper, cardboard, paperboard, aluminum, glass, plastics, steel) go into the recycle bins.

*All non-perishable food (dry food like cereal, canned food, anything that doesn’t have to go in the refrigerator) can be donated in the Hand Up Food Pantry Bins located in Warren SAC & Res Life offices at each college and the Village.

*All dishes from dining restaurants should be returned to Toby’s Spots.

**Once an item is placed in a donation, recycle, or trash bin, it cannot be taken out. Please do not take any items out of the bins! Failure to comply will lead to disciplinary action.

-->Please go to the hdh.ucsd.edu/majorplanet website to find answers to your move-out questions.

-->Also, refer to the EcoNaut’s educational ROOM RAIDERS video, demonstrating how to move out in a Zero Waste fashion!

Email any questions to majorplanet@ucsd.edu.

Let's make move outs zero waste!

Thank you! Have a great week!

Rush EKO with the EcoNauts, and look out for traveling Farmer's Markets!

Hey everyone!

Want to get involved with the "green" scene on campus? Come out to "Rush EKO" for a week of events happening in January. We will keep you posted!

If you would like to help contribute to the success of the event, please donate your empty plastic water bottles to the EcoNauts! You can drop them off in designated cardboard boxes at The Village laundry mats.

The Villagers do their laundry at "The Launderette" in building 1 and "The Washboard" in building 3.

Thanks guys!! : )

FYI: If you haven't been to any of the farmer's markets on campus, awesome news!

The market is coming to you!!

It'll be a traveling caravan around campus every Wednesday.

Next Wednesday, Jan. 20th, the "farm 2 U" Farmer's Market will take place at The Village transfer housing on campus from 3:00-6:30pm.

It's an event that truly caters to students because you can use your UCSD Dining Dollars at the market! Just another way you can use those meal points to enjoy the fresher things in life. : )

Here are some iconic images of The Village, in case you havn't been there yet, and don't know what to look for.

The Village is North of ERC and Cafe V. So head over to check out some deliciously fresh goodies!

Have a great week, and be good to yourself!
