Senate approves environmental committee

The De Anza Associated Student Body Senate approved the creation of a new DASB ad-hoc Environmental Committee during their August 1 meeting. The committee was proposed by DASB Senator Adwin Ho.

“When we look at the campus right now, our students do not have enough sense of environmental protection,” Ho said in his written proposal to the senate.
According to the proposal, the goals of the DASB Ad-Hoc Environmental
Committee will be:
1) To raise the sense of environmental
protection of students and staff.
2) To educate students of the importance
of environmental protection.
3) To improve De Anza’s living and studying environment.
4) To coordinate with the Sustainability
Management Plan proposed by the Campus Environmental
Advisory group.

The committee also plans to encourage campus recycling, and pursue bringing healthy and organic food to De Anza.
