North Campus Research Complex (NCRC) Sustainable Lab Day

The Office of Campus Sustainability, the U-M Medical School, and the Planet Blue Ambassador Program are hosting a “Sustainable Lab Day” in the North Campus Research Complex (NCRC) on September 16th to try to reduce barriers for labs looking to become sustainably certified. The sustainable lab certification helps labs reduce their energy and waste, make greener purchases, and practice green chemistry. Prior to the event, labs need to complete the baseline certification application form. Then they can sign up for a lab site visit to review improvements as well as attend a Planet Blue Ambassador training with their lab mates. Free pizza will be available during the training. There will be a farmer’s market event from 11 am-1 pm outside of Picasso’s and there will be a table outside of Picasso’s from 9 am-2 pm with sustainability information, giveaways, and snacks!

Time:  9:00 am – 3:00 pm
