Its mission is to promote a “green” campus by coordinating and sponsoring events that further Clemson’s commitment to the environment and sustainability. The goals of Solid Green are to raise awareness of littering on campus, recycling, energy and water conservation and other environmental issues; to promote clean-up activities and other events; and to support student groups that promote environmental awareness.

Teaching and Research

* Strengthen and prioritize undergraduate, graduate, and post-grad environmental studies, research, and policy programs.
* Teach environmental literacy to all students.
* Expand opportunities for using the campus physical plant and business operations as a “learning lab” for students.
* Develop community environmental education programs and participate in public dialogue on environmental issues in the wider community

Relocate a college's server computers next to a solar-power generator. Replace AC power with DC power. Cool the servers only where they get the hottest. Put the servers in the ocean and power them with waves.

Those were a few of the ideas discussed last week at a conference, "Greening the Internet Economy," that was designed to address the problem of the soaring financial and environmental costs of information technology. The event, held by the University of California at San Diego, offered a sampling of a new generation of technologies that promise to help colleges make their IT departments both more efficient and more sustainable.


Regarding for the URL number 1. Saving an energy using an application software it is good for the university because we are implementing to save energy. this Software can reduce your monthly bill for electricity, but it must be that in every department must used this software. It's amazing right therefore our problem as a student for using or switching our laptop are being resolve.. Right? u just install the software in your laptop and you can't give a big charge for the university electricity charge.. for the URL number 2, As i observe a lot of student here in the university are using the outside source for their studies, which is to expensive specially to the less fortunate student who don't even know where to get their allowance for the next day or week..Why we don't expand opportunities to the students to used the campus for learning activities. University must use our campus for our focus of studies if our topic can be found inside the campus to save money or to consider the other students right. For the URL number 3, we must Relocate a college's server computers next to a solar-power generator, it is really cool right we can save more energy. The university must do this for a better way on how to implement green campus computing in USEP. Because if we implement all of this, not only the administration can get the benefits but also the student in the university can get a lot of benefits from using the electricity to conducting a proper studies. this all i can suggest!!!


hehehe!!!!
