BU sponsors sustainability festival, Carbon Day
It’s a good day to be green.
The University is sponsoring two events today designed to promote eco-friendly lifestyles and environmental education: the sustainability@BU Festival, at the George Sherman Union Plaza, and Carbon Day, in Copley Square.
The second annual sustainability@BU Festival, running from 11 a.m. to 2:30 p.m., is an opportunity for student clubs, University programs, and private companies to showcase their green activities and causes.
