If you ve walked past Canopy N (next to Food Connection) last week, you definitely wouldn t have missed Earthlink NTU s booth and ever-enthusiastic volunteers. Titled Greening NTU , the three day event from the 10th to 12th of March focussed on making the NTU student population more aware about the Bring Your Own Bag (BYOB) campaign that encourages them to utilize re-usable bags instead of plastic bags. The event also propagated the BYOC (Bring Your Own Container) movement that promotes the use of using one s own cutlery and container set for take-away meals rather than using disposable cutlery. Not limited to just a booth but even had a Lucky Draw, sales of lunch boxes, giving away of reusable bags and interactive games. The highlight of the event was the signing of participants on the Lunchbox Action Board, pledging to contribute to the cause. Organized every semester, the Greening NTU event has always been successful in bringing the NTU students together for worthy environmental causes, and it definitely did this time round as well!
