It is not always big acts that make a difference, but little deeds that pile up and make an impact. You<\/em> as a member of the Bellevue College community can take up easy-to-do sustainable efforts and truly make a difference.<\/p>\n

Take BC student, Riley Hart; at first glance he might not seem to be the most sustainability-minded individual, however, upon further inspection, he puts in little acts that contribute to the betterment of our campus community. Let\u2019s meet Riley and see exactly how he manages to do so.<\/p>\n

Name:<\/strong> Riley<\/dt>\n<\/dl>\n<\/div>\n

Hometown:<\/strong> Woodinville, Washington<\/p>\n

Class Standing: <\/strong>Running Start<\/p>\n

Major:<\/strong> Undecided<\/p>\n

Let\u2019s talk Sustainability!<\/strong><\/h2>\n

 <\/p>\n

That\u2019s a really cool pencil case! Did you make it yourself? What is it made of?<\/strong><\/p>\n

It is made of Caprison juice packets. No, I didn\u2019t make it. I was at home one day and my mum had bought some food and left it on the kitchen counter table. I thought it was juice but it was a case. It was pretty cool so I took it for school.<\/p>\n

That\u2019s great! Do you use any other sustainable products for school?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Well, all my books that I use to take notes on are made from recycled paper. Also, whenever I get homework that I need to print, I use the N-lab and print double-sided. \u00a0I also use the recycling and composting bins around campus.<\/p>\n

Do you use alternate transportation? Financially speaking, does it make a difference?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Yes, I take the bus to school and back. I bought an orca pass, and that\u2019s made travelling much easier.\u00a0 It\u2019s also much cheaper than driving all the way from Woodinville.<\/p>\n

What about outside of school? Do you incorporate sustainability in your life?<\/strong><\/p>\n

I\u2019m trying to get my family to recycle and compost more at home. We are trying to start composting. But my sister recycles all her insulin needles.<\/p>\n

What do you think?<\/h2>\n

What do you think of Riley\u2019s lifestyle? Would you consider taking the bus? What about using recycled items like his pencil \u2013case? Make sure to leave a comment and let us know!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
