Eco-Representatives - Barnard College/Columbia University

Conscious Lifestyle is proud of its ventures and wants to keep them all up to date on each other. All our ventures can learn from each other and take pride in the differences they are each making for people, animals, and the environment.

The Barnard Eco-Representatives one of Conscious Lifestyle’s ventures, has a new website! These 10 students from Barnard College organize educational programming to help students live “environmentally-conscious” lifestyles. On their site you can learn even more about the EcoReps, what they do, and even get involved in Earth-friendly campus happenings. Take a look at their Green in NYC page, which has lots of good info about eco-friendly activities, restaurants, bakeries, farmers’ markets, and thrift stores in New York City. There are also some good tips on green living in general. Check out the The Eco-Reps today!

Eco-Representatives are Residential Advisors (RA's) who organize educational programming to help students live “environmental-conscious” lifestyles. Their major initiatives include: 1) training courses in environmental conservation and urban waste management, and 2) campus-wide activities such as film screenings, site visits to LEED certified buildings and other “green” centers in the city, and workshops on sustainable living.
