2 September 2009 - Welcome back!
Hi everyone!
Welcome back to the new semester! We had a record number of 69 students attend our first ECO meeting of the school year! Keep bringing your friends and let everyone know about ECO! :)
The website is currently under construction... (again) as I am trying to set up the ECO 3.0 page. =D Be very excited. Hopefully everything will be up and running within a few weeks.
PS: the comment box was attacked by spambots with 20000 messages over the summer so that is also down temporarily. :(

Subject: ECO interest in speaker?
To:
trumaneco@gmail.com
Dr. Amber Johnson of the Anthropology department asked me to send an
email to ECO-ites to find out if there was any interest in meeting with
a Sigma Xi
speaker who's coming to talk about climate change. I think
it looks pretty cool, here's the link:
http://sigmaxi.truman.edu/sxbanquet.html
There's a window from about
2-4 P.M. on
Thursday, April 16, where people can meet with him (in the
anthropology lab, or the SUB, or wherever is convenient) to discuss
and share ideas about the environment and environmental studies. Thanks
a lot!

The second/final installment in the Community Environmentalism Seminar
Series is coming soon!
Community Living: The CAFO Co-op Experience
A presentation on community living at the Missouri Department of
Conservation
Thursday, April 9th at 7:00 P.M.
Missouri Department of Conservation Building, 3500 S. Baltimore
Abstract: "Last fall, eight Truman State University students united
under the roof of a single house in an effort to achieve a more
socially and environmentally sustainable way of life. We will share how
principles of consensus, community support, egalitarianism, and open
communication have been essential to maintaining a social well-being
within our dynamic cooperative living situation, and delve into the
practices and projects that have been part of our movement toward a
lower-impact lifestyle."
Bring your friends!

20 February 2009 - Street Team went to Brashear Elementary!
Street Team went to Brashear Elementary and worked with k-5 children. The children played a "Where Things Come
From" game, and learned about where items like glass, aluminum, and
electricity come from and go after being used. The children also
painted glass bottles, turning them into decorations, vases, or
anything else they wanted.
