USC’s EcoReps Leadership Team started celebrating Earth Week with a tie-dyeing event on the Russell House Patio Monday.
In exchange for donating plastic bags, students were provided all of the necessary artistic supplies.
The event included a taste test that pitted tap water against bottled water. EcoReps handed out reusable water bottles to encourage people to drink tap water instead of using disposable bottles.
The EcoReps program is a peer-led collaboration between University Housing and Sustainable Carolina that works to educate students on campus about environmental issues and living sustainably.
Sustainable Carolina is hosting events to promote sustainability throughout the week in honor of Earth Week.
