We address such issues as over-consumption, waste disposal, water quality, and native species conservation, as well as what can be done to mitigate these concerns.<\/p>\n

Camosun College Student Society\u2019s Sustainability Director and acting CSEA president Stephanie Hurst and CSEA vice-president Maggie LeBlanc run CSEA along with a team of committed student volunteers.<\/p>\n

The group meets biweekly to discuss upcoming events, planned workshops, and potential sustainability projects on campus and in the community.<\/p>\n

Future workshops include soap\/body-scrub-making, make-your-own-paper, wild foraging, seed saving, invasive plant extractions, and many, many more.<\/p>\n

Our first event is the Great Canadian Shoreline Clean-up at Craigflower Park on September 28 at 10 am. CSEA will have garbage bags and bins available for volunteers to pick up garbage and help clean our beautiful city. Everyone is encouraged to attend and take part in the movement towards a cleaner, greener Victoria.<\/p>\n
