It’s good that a university is going green. As a center of education “the green attitude” will spread through the students. The students are young and they represent the future. A green future.

Burning Oat hulls? That’s an interesting source of fuel that I haven’t heard of yet. I guess the alternatives can be found everywhere, if only there’s a will to look for them. Great article by the way.

Comment on Year-End Donation Drive Diverts furniture, clothes, housewares from landfill by George Buchan

I wish everywhere would do this sort of thing to help out Families, Especially for all the Children, If it helps out mums and dads give their children an extra pair of shoes or boots, Or a much needed piece of bedroom furniture, It can only be a great thing.
I have a similar thing locally to me, It is supposed to be for families that can’t afford much, But they charge prices that in a lot of items, They are even more expensive than the shops, Which defeats the purpose entirely !

It’s great to see more and more people doing their part to conserve this place we call home. If more people would get on board with conservation such as recycling, conserving energy and low emissions we would see less of an impact and give something better to our children.

That is such a great idea! I never heard befor for such an intiative as the Year-End Donation Drive and am applausing it!! What is better way to gather some donation, than help all of the students and their parents to get rid of the stuff they will wonder where to throw away anyways.Bravo for the great idea to all of the faculty and the state of Iowa!
