The URI Energy Solutions Contest
Submit a Video showing how you conserve energy and WIN A $500 CREDIT CARD!
Video contest winners will be announced at the Expo plenary session (keynote address) at 11:00 AM
The Contest:
Video submission should address one of the following questions:
- "How do you cut down on shower time?"
- “What helps you remember to turn off your computer?”
- “How can students remember to turn off a fan or air conditioner?”
Why these three behaviors?
A recent survey says…
- On average, less than 7% of URI students take a shower that lasts 5 minutes or less!!
- 70% of URI students don’t know that screen savers use electricity, instead of save it!
- Only 75% of URI students turn off their fan or AC when leaving their room!
BUT…
- 97% of Students think URI should conserve more energy.
- 91% believe that their personal actions, in combination with others, have a significant impact on the environment
URI NEEDS YOU TO HELP STUDENTS SAVE ENERGY!!
