I'm glad I won't have to sit through all the green talk on the broadcast...cause I'll be at the game.

it was AOSS day at Crisler?
If they wanted to really go green, they'd cancel the game at Crisler and just have it at the IM bldg where they don't turn on the heat anyway.
Psuedo-environmentalism pisses me off.

My guess is that no one thinks going green this Saturday will save the planet. It is (or it should be) obviously for show, to promote green ideas. Its about awareness. Give them a break.
December 17th, 2009 at 12:04 AM ^
So we will be saving heat at Crisler on Saturday.
December 16th, 2009 at 12:26 PM ^
I'll be there too!
GO BLUE!

For some reason, this bullet point made me laugh:
• All bottles recycled will be taken to the Wal-Mart Recycling Center.

Wal-Mart is actually doing a great job at striving for a respectable level of being green. They are often upheld as an exemplar of environmental organizational change. I know, who'd of thought.
December 16th, 2009 at 4:13 PM ^
Wal Mart is still the devil.

Sam Walton was big on buying US made stuff, especially locally in the towns where they did business. The past CEO threw that policy right out the window and bought everything he could from China. If the new guy goes back to their roots, and all indications are he will, that will mean that Walmart brings manufacturing jobs not just retail jobs.
Green things are a personal choice IMHO and I'm getting a little sick of having it rammed down my throat by people who tell me what to do, but then don't live up to those expectations.

They will save money on the electric bill by shooting lights out.
December 16th, 2009 at 4:13 PM ^
being in this state and being Michigan, going green would be a bad idea.
December 16th, 2009 at 4:33 PM ^
run me over with a Prius after you've gagged me with tofu

I've never liked how being environmentally friendly is called going "green." The Earth is mostly blue, thanks to being 71% covered with water. We should talk about these teams going blue.

Well done, well done. A very clever way to frame the U's involvement in conservation initiatives. People doing that sort of work here (like myself) should take note. And if I ever want to use this I'll contact you.
