What is it all about?

Green Week, Sustainability…What is it all about?

Green Week occurs one week in the spring of each year.  For one week, we make a big effort to focus attention on and to engage residents, students, and visitors in learning more about sustainability.   There is so much going on in Oxford all the time, that we feel it is important to try to focus attention on these issues.

A committee forms each year to plan events to connect with the University and the Oxford community.  The committee is a collaborative effort among the city, the university, and actively involved citizens who donate their time to conduct this planning.

Sustainability is way of living where you use resources smartly and efficiently, not wastefully and without thinking.  Living sustainably usually also saves you money and is better for your health!
