The International Faculty held an eco-week

The International Faculty held an eco-week. The event was organized to develop environmental culture and formation of environmental habits among students. All preparations were made by the freshmen.

“We understood, that young people care about the environment. They listened to us with a twinkle in their eyes, and then helped to make a video. Guys were actively involved in the conversation and they offered their cool alternatives to disposable things. We even have got a cool environmental start-up idea”, - tells one of the event organizers Olga Bagaeva.

The participants of the event talked about ways to save the nature. They offered to use thermoses instead of plastic bottles and to wear shoppers. The students of the International Faculty use only metal chopsticks and containers.

Second and fourth year students took part at the eco-week, hosted by freshmen, as well. In the framework of the project the students were given a lecture about healthy environmental habits and they were told what things can be reused. They also learned about reception and processing points of plastic, glass and paper. Collection of used batteries was opened at the International Faculty.
