Campus Sustainability Day
Each year on October 30th, UTRGV celebrates Campus Sustainability Day to wrap up Campus Sustainability Month with reflection, community engagement, and renewed commitment. This day highlights the university’s strides toward a more sustainable campus and reinforces the importance of sustainability in our personal lives, academic journeys, and global responsibilities.
The 2023 event featured eco-friendly refreshments served in biodegradable cups, sustainability-themed goodie bags, and a raffle to encourage participation and awareness. Attendees engaged with interactive activities like Sustainability Lotería, which offered prizes while educating participants on the three pillars of Sustainability. The evening program welcomed Sierra Club President Ramón Cruz for a powerful discussion on climate justice and community resilience, followed by a screening of the documentary 2040, which explores hopeful solutions for a sustainable future.
