CSU’s Green Warrior challenge begins Monday, Sept. 22 and runs through Sunday, Nov. 16. During this eight week-long sustainable behavior change campaign, students are encouraged to adopt more sustainable practices. This year is the fourth year of Green Warrior. To date, more than 4,000 students  have become Green Warriors to help change our planet’s future.

When students sign up to become a Green Warrior they can choose to pledge from a multitude of sustainable habits, such as:

• taking shorter showers
• turning the lights off when leaving residence hall rooms
• using reusable bags when grocery shopping
• using alternative transportation

Students earn prizes based on a point-based system tallied by how many sustainable behavior choices pledged. Prizes this year include CFL light bulbs, Green Warrior stickers, remote controlled power strips, Green Warrior T-shirts, and one lucky person will be picked out of a drawing to win a bike of their choosing from Recycled Cycles.

Participate in this year’s Green Warrior campaign and help foster a sustainable culture at CSU.
