[Newleaf] Environmental Committee nomination time!!

[Martha Pskowski]

Hey y'alls,

The Environmental Committee needs nominations for elections this year.
 Nominate yourself or someone who would be good for it!!  Here's the
description:

The Environmental Committee (EC) identifies and evaluates
opportunities for the Hampshire College community to decrease its
environmental footprint and increase its overall sustainability. The
EC coordinates, develops, and vets ideas and plans related to energy
and materials consumption and emissions and provide information,
counsel, and specific recommendations to the College President. The EC
facilitates communication between administrators, trustees, faculty,
staff, and student groups in order to advance environmentally-related
plans, interests, and activism. The EC will engage the entire
community in environmental and sustainability issues from campus to
global scales and increase the community's awareness of and
accessibility to low-impact living options on and off campus.

The most important job for the EC this year will be to develop the
Climate Action Plan for the College, which describes how Hampshire
will meet the goal of becoming "climate neutral" as part of the
American College and University's Presidential Climate Commitment.

The membership of the committee consists of 3 students, 3 faculty, 3
staff, and an appointed administrator. Members are elected by their
constituents.

Please send names for nominations to me, Steve Roof -
sroof at hampshire.edu. I am also happy to answer any questions about the
committee and its tasks.
