SUSTAINABILITY IN RPI

Discover how you can contribute to sustainability at RPI with these easy tips! In the dining hall, embracing trayless dining can reduce food waste by about 20% while saving water—one unused tray conserves half a gallon per use, amounting to over 200 gallons per year. In your dorm or apartment, taking one minute off your shower can save 1,500 gallons of water annually. Additionally, unplugging appliances can reduce energy use by 20%, and turning off lights when leaving a room can lower greenhouse gas emissions. Small changes lead to a big impact!
