REDUCE SINGLE USE

Faculty from the 成人AV视频 and Eckerd College received a $340,000 award from the NOAA Marine Debris Program to reduce single-use plastic consumption and foster long-term pro-environmental behaviors among undergraduates in coastal communities. The goal of the research program was to reduce generation of marine debris in those areas over time. Learn more about the .

IERE Support

The goal of the reduce single use project at 成人AV视频 continues to be to educate the campus and broader community about the harmful results of using single-use plastics. IERE’s role in the sponsored research project was to plan and implement single-use plastic reduction outreach and education initiatives and involve students every step of the way . IERE staff and students continue to facilitate single-use plastic reduction workshops and clean-ups for faculty, staff, students, and community members in Northeast Florida. In addition, IERE works to advocate and support the 成人AV视频 campus community to reduce single use plastic on campus.

Community Cleanups

As community members we have a responsibility and play a vital role in protecting our environment. We must act responsibly to maintain a healthy and enjoyable environment for everyone. There are organizations around the world focused on protecting the environment from plastic pollution. 

Join other students, faculty and staff in helping remove trash and debris from parks and waterways in Northeast Florida. Visit the homepage for details on upcoming events.

Workshops and Lectures

A number of education and outreach activities were executed throughout the two-year project. These activities were designed to raise awareness about marine debris, facilitate understanding of the connections between actions and impacts in the marine environment, and encourage behavior change. These activities included both formal (e.g., courses or modules) and informal (e.g., lectures, workshops, cleanups open to voluntary participation by members of the community) education experiences.
