Environmental Education & Literacy
The University strives to identify areas of improvement in environmental awareness and education, as well as to promote environmental leadership and community efforts around campus. With a growing campus population, there has been increasing focus on informing students, faculty, and staff of their impact on the environment and natural resources.
The University of Connecticut aims at increasing activities and opportunities to learn about important environmentally related issues. By the addition of academic courses, hosting environmental speakers series, enhancing many other environmental outreach events, we continue to make UConn an institute of environmental stewardship and progress.
Need Your Help
by Andrew Sholudko
Can’t you all hear what the siren meant
Gotta start saving the environment
Do a little bit, every little bit that you can
Cuz we’re cutting down on the human lifespan
And I need your help
In saving this place, that we call home.
And I need your help
I know that I can’t, do it all alone
Now you gotta chance to save this mother of a pearl world you’ve been whirling in
We’ve been destroying our forests, our oceans, and our planet
Now we gotta do something quick to stop it and can it
CFC’s in the ozone
We’ve now just cast the first stone
But this earth’s got a stone of its own
Ready to be cocked and ready to be thrown
But I need your help
In saving this place, that we call home.
And I need your help
I know that I can’t, do it all alone
All alone
But you gotta chance to reverse what’s been done
All you gotta do is just a little bit for everyone
Everyday just cleanup your fair share my friend
And we’ll all be better off in the end
In the end
Now you gotta chance to save this mother of a pearl world you’ve been whirling in
Big black smoke goes up in the air, when you burn that stuff, but you just don’t care
Now we gotta clean up after you, when it’s not nothing that we didn’t do
But my advice to you, is just do a little bit every day
It’ll be okay
But I need your help
In saving this place, that we call home.
And I need your help
I know that I can’t, do it all alone
All alone
All alone
