Project

My2025UCLA

Description

We are planning to engage students and increase awareness by harnessing their creative potential in envisioning a carbon neutral 2025. Specifically, we have been asking students of all ages and majors what their carbon neutral 2025 looks like, and recording answers via whiteboards to compile into a video. In addition, we will use social media outlets to show the pictures.

Goals

Increase awareness and knowledge of carbon neutrality throughout campus, especially educating individuals whose campus lives might not directly relate to the cause. If successful, we will have an inspired, dedicated student body with knowledge of what "carbon neutrality" means for the planet and the UC system.
