Engineers for a Sustainable World at UCI - ESW

we talk about carbon emissions all the time, but do you actually know how much you contribute???? i didn't, so i found the shortest, most aesthetic carbon footprint calculator out there and it's pretty neat https://www.conservation.org/carbon-footprint-calculator #/

the point of this exercise is not to guilt people, but just to let you be aware of your impact!! yes, every person counts, but it doesn't take everything to curb global warming and it's so so easy to start with small things!

*this super short calculator was chosen to appeal to the 3 second attention span we deal with on social media. if you are interested in something more extensive/accurate, try out something that asks for quantitative input!*

Carbon Footprint Calculator What is your carbon footprint? Calculate it now. Offsetting the carbon emissions from your lifestyle is a critical step toward fighting climate change.

Here's the slides from yesterday's first General Meeting!

It was a radiating and educational day at San Onofre Nuclear Generating Station this past Saturday, May 4th! We actively learned about the benefits of nuclear power as well as some misconceptions surrounding this energy alternative. Did you know you could recycle nuclear waste?! Mind-blowing!

No superpowers were gained but some powerful knowledge was learned about an alternative that'll cause more good than harm.

And don't forget today we have our Week 6 General Meeting! ^_^

Last week's general meeting was a blast upcycling cans and bottles for hanging gardens! Sadly, there's no general meeting today, but we have an ESO bonfire this Friday and a general meeting next week!
