Cov Uni Goes Green!

By Galya Dimitrova

This week Coventry University sets a “green” agenda. From 11^th till 15^th February the University School of Art and Design is running various events to raise awareness of Green issues and the University contribution to a healthier, “greener” life.

 

The main issues to be brought up are the reducing of energy wastage and the improvement of recycling.

 

If you are particularly creative and ecology is something you stand for, this is your chance to win one of the prices that are going to be given by the School. The categories are “Best Idea to Reduce Energy Wasting within the School” and “Best Piece of Work Made of Recycled Materials”.

 

A Fairtrade Coffee afternoon is taking place on Friday 15^th February from 11am till1 pm at Graham Sutherland building. Everyone interested in the development of the Green issues can join the School of Art and Design and use a sample Fairtrade coffee and biscuits.

 

Again in Graham Sutherland topical environmental films will be screened almost every day of the Green Week. The screenings are in the following order:

 

11^th February, 3-5pm: “Wall-e“

13^th February, 12-2pm: “The Age of Stupid”

14^th February, 11am-1pm: “Food Inc”

15^th February, 1-3pm: “Koyaanisquatsi”

 

All events are free and everyone is invited to go.
