Campus Recreation and Wellness Goes Green!

On October 6, 2008, CRW unveiled Go Green initiatives to raise awareness about environmental wellness.

You may not think of environmental wellness as a dimension of overall personal wellness; however the choices that you make affect not only you but also the environment that you live in. Environmental wellness includes our relationship with the planet, nature, and our surroundings. Achieving environmental wellness involves understanding the impact of personal choices on our earth and taking action to protect it.
