The ASCP would not be able to make such an impact without the help and involvement of all our campus friends and partners. We would like to highlight some of the amazing things that these individuals have accomplished in conjunction with the ASCP. Please check out these cool events and initiatives!
Waste Diversion - Move-In Sale
The ASCP hosted its first Move-In Sale! At the end of the Spring 22' semester, our Waste Diversion team collected lightly used items from campus residence halls to divert waste from our landfills and rehouse quality items. We then supplied students with the opportunity to do some FREE environmentally friendly back-to-school shopping this August. We diverted over 3,550 pounds of goods. That is over the weight of two adult male kodiak bears! This data includes all of the donated items (furniture, clothing, bedding, personal care items, etc.) except for food. 
Creek Cleanups- July & August
Here is an update on the Creek Cleanups that the ASCP hosted in July and August! During our July cleanup, the volunteer and staff team pulled 472 pounds of trash from the Cherry Creek, and our August cleanup resulted in 537 pounds! That equates to around the weight of three adult male panda bears. Thank you to all volunteers and EcoReps who donated their time to keep the Cherry Creek clean. Keep an eye out on our social media channels and September Newsletter for our following Creek Cleanup details. If you are interested in other volunteer opportunities, consider joining the EcoRep Program.
ASCP Relocation - Tivoli 346
With a growing team of nearly 15, the ASCP has moved from Tivoli Suite 267 to Suite 346. If you need to contact us in person or just want to swing by and say hi, we are now located on the third level of the Tivoli to the right of the CU Denver Sentry. You can also always reach us through our email: scp_contact@ahec.edu.

We want to answer your inquires about making campus more sustainable, as well as leading a more eco-friendly life. We encourage all of you to submit questions you may have about the environment and sustainable living. You can submit them by DMing us on any form of social media, or emailing us at scp_contact@ahec.edu. At the end of each month we will reveal which question was selected by the staff and address it in the upcoming newsletter!
